Water helps to keep your body refreshed and hydrated, and also helps with scars, wrinkles, and blemishes. As per Ayurveda, water should be consumed at room temperature or hot, rather than cold or iced. This helps boost your digestive fire (Agni). For better hydration, turn your regular water into an electrolyte drink by adding a teaspoon of honey, a pinch of mineral salt, and a squeeze of lime or lemon. This helps your body retain water for a longer period.

Manjistha – This is one of the best herbs for blood purification, which in turn gives you a clearer complexion.

Ginger – Invigorating and warming, any food item can be supplemented with ginger for better digestion.  

Trikatu – Meaning “three pungents”, trikatu is an Ayurvedic blend of pippali, black pepper, and ginger. It aids in faster digestion.
