📜 What Is Ajwain?
“Tiny seeds, ancient strength.”
Ajwain (carom seeds) look similar to cumin but taste more like thyme—pungent, peppery, and herbal. Rich in thymol, a natural antiseptic, these seeds help regulate digestion, reduce acidity, and fight bloating.
Ajwain water is commonly consumed after heavy meals or first thing in the morning as a gut cleanser.
