What is Ajwain or Trachyspermum ammi?

Ajwain is an Indian spice commonly used as a remedy for gastrointestinal problems like indigestion, flatulence, and colic pain.

How does  Ajwain or Trachyspermum ammi help in Ayurvedic Healing?

Ajwain helps in the below conditions-

 

1. Indigestion

Ajwain helps to manage digestive problems by promoting digestive fire due to its Deepan (appetizer) property. It also helps to digest the food easily due to its Pachan (digestive) property and gives relief from flatulence.

 

 2. Asthma

Ajwain might be useful in patients with asthma as it balances an aggravated Kapha. Ajwain helps to bring out the mucus easily and helps manage chronic bronchitis and asthma to a great extent.

 

3.  Kidney stone

Ajwain has antilithiatic properties and lowers the risk of kidney stone formation. A study states that antilithiatic protein present in Ajwain seeds inhibits both calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate deposition and prevents kidney stone formation.

4. Diabetes

Ashwagandha might control blood sugar in diabetic patients by increasing insulin production and improving insulin sensitivity.
Studies state that Ashwagandha makes the cells less resistant to insulin. This improves insulin sensitivity and increases glucose utilization by the cells. Ashwagandha also protects and increases the number of insulin-producing cells thus increasing insulin secretion. Together, it helps to manage the risk of diabetes.
