| From the beginning of time spices and herbs have been used to treat illness due to their powerful phytonutients. During this worrisome flu season, my spice cabinet has become my first line of defense. Cinnamon, clove, oregano are ingredients in my sanitizing hand spray. Turmeric which we take every day for joint pain also strengthens our immune system. Healing Spices by Bharat B. Aggarwal, PhD has been my a part of my spice library for years..

The recipe section is followed with a chart showing spices and their medicinal properties. RX from The Spice Tin – wash your hands, cover your cough and head to your spice cabinet! |
