Cultural & Traditional Relevance
Cumin (Jeera) holds a sacred place in Indian culture and Ayurvedic medicine, where it's classified as a "tridoshic" spice that balances all three doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha). For over 5,000 years, it has been used not just as a culinary staple but as a powerful digestive aid and healing herb. In traditional Indian households, cumin water is a time-honored morning ritual for detoxification and digestive wellness.
