Forget the sugar and serve up some spice because that’s what healthy dishes are made of. Everyday seasonings in your spice rack are not only full of flavor but contain antioxidants and antimicrobial properties. Historically, many cultures have used spices to help treat ailments. In recent times, scientific findings have shown that spices hold the key to unlocking many health benefits for our bodies.
Researchers are studying different properties of spices and the role they play in inflammation and cancer prevention. Scientists are discovering that a simple dash of certain spices can have more antioxidant power than some whole fruits.
