    • Cinnamon has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
    • Cradomom or elaichi helps in reliving sore throat and is cooling for the body.
    • Cloves can help in boosting functioning of the immune system.
    • Black pepper corns are also high in antioxidants. They help in better absorption of turmeric. "The addition of black pepper with turmeric increases the absorption of turmeric by 2000 percent when used in a 1:10 ratio of pepper to turmeric. Pretty amazing, right? Black pepper aids in combating respiratory conditions and rejuvenating the lungs," Dhondy writes in the caption of her post.
    • Point to note

      Curcumin is the compound in turmeric which is responsible for most the of the health benefits that turmeric offers. It is a polyphenol with strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anti-fungal properties.

    Black pepper contains piperine, which is an alkaloid like capsaicin (the active compound found in chilli powder and cayenne pepper). This compound has been shown to help relieve nausea, headaches and poor digestion. Piperine also has anti-inflammatory properties. But, the most significant benefit of piperine is that it improves absorption of curcumin in turmeric.

To prepare this kadha, you need to fill a pot with filterd water. Thrush fresh ginger and turmeric in a mortar and pestle and add to the water. After a boil, add all the other spices and let the water boil for 15-20 minutes.

Take a cup and add some honey or jaggery to sweeten the kadha. You can warm it again and have it multiple times in a day for a stronger immunity.

You can sip on this kadha multiple times a day!
