if diving into your favorite comfort food is the first thing you like to do at the
hint of cold weather, think about adding some spices to your recipe. Certain spices
can improve your health. Spicing up that favorite winter soup or stews can be
comforting, both mentally and physically. It can also help us stay healthier and
stronger as the cold winds blow. It’s proven that Cilantro is an important spice
used as a medicinal herb to aid digestion. Dr. Michael Murray, a natural medicine
doctor and author of The Encyclopedia of Healing Foods, suggests trying nutmeg
may encourage sleep by mirroring the effect of serotonin. You can also combat
your irritable mood or low-level depression by sprinkling turmeric in your dish for
a quick pick-me- up and to reduce inflammation in your joints.
