Cumin aka jeera is a spice used in Mexican and Indian food for years now. It has a delicious, nutty flavour which makes the food flavoursome. While it is known for its taste, it also posses a lot of health benefits while also helping in weight loss. More than consuming it directly, jeera soaked in water overnight can help the body in many ways.

So, what is Jeera Water?

Jeera water is a light brown coloured solution you obtain after soaking jeera seeds in water overnight. Through the process of osmosis, the water gets soaked into the seed resulting in them to swell up. This water is then released back into the water along with all the nutrients that result in the earthy yellow colour change. 

But, how does it help in weight loss?

Boosts Metabolism:

When you have a low metabolism rate your body will not be able to use up all the sugar and fat in the food and body, resulting in gaining all the weight. Cumin water helps in boosting the metabolism rate as it is loaded with vitamins and minerals. The water, on the other hand, keeps all the cells running and active. 

Improves Digestion

Cumin water helps in digestion by promoting bowel movements. Better digestion automatically improves the metabolic rate resulting in weight loss. It is great to lose weight because it also reduces unwanted bloating. 

Insulin sensitivity

According to Stylecraze, ‘Your body becomes insulin resistant when there is a constant spike in the blood glucose levels. And this can cause type 2 diabetes, PCOs, and infertility.  So, it is important that you keep your blood sugar levels in check’. Cumin can help get these glucose levels in control while also avoiding all the problems that come with it. 

Hydration

Hydration is the best way to lose weight. Drinking jeera water in the morning can help in flushing out all the toxins from the body while also promoting healthy bowel movements. It also rehydrates all the cells in the body to promote weight loss. 

While jeera water does help in losing some extra kilos, weight loss also depends on the kind of lifestyle and the diet you have. You just have to realise that it is not miracle water and do not go overboard with it.
