I am back with another home remedy and this time it is for the tummy.One of the tried and tested remedy for an upset tummy / flatulence/ indigestion /nausea is this simple concoction made using Omam / Ajwain / Bishop’s weed. It is really very effective and can be given to kids in small doses of 5- 10 ml,adults can take 1/4 cup of this 2-3 times a day.This is my second post for the theme –Home remedies for BM #45, Week 3, Day 2.
Roast 1 tablespoon of ajwain / omam in a pan for a minute till aromatic. Add 2 cups of water and bring to boil.Simmer till it reduces to 3/4th the original quantity. Stain and serve.
If you find the taste over powering, dilute it by adding some water.

Bon Appetit…
Ajwain is a wonderful herb and even we use it for stomach related problems.
Ajwain does wonders for simple digestive problems. Nice one.
Makes me nostalgic, this is one my grandma's signature remedy, she never failed to make them whenever we go to her place during summer vacation.
Such an useful post PJ..I must write down all these in one place..

Ajwain is a wonder spice!! I rely on it way too much!
My MIL suggests the same remedy for tummy problems. Very useful tip indeed.
due to my irregular work schedule, I dont always eat regularly and I sometimes get stomach problems due to not eating on schedule. this is a simple remedy with familiar ingredient I will try next time
This is regularly used in my family too. I really like how you can easily buy this off the shelf too, in most places in Tamilnadu.
