Food & medicine 

Food and medicine have been connected throughout human history, with many traditional cultures using plants, fruits, seeds, herbs, spices, and other natural foods as part of everyday life. This blog explores the relationship between food, nutrition, traditional knowledge, and medicinal plants, with a focus on Kashmir, and naturally available ingredients.

We share information about nutritious foods, traditional recipes, herbs, spices, fruits, vegetables, seeds, roots, and other plant-based ingredients. Information may explore their traditional uses, nutritional characteristics, preparation methods, cultivation, storage, and culinary applications.

Our goal is to encourage greater appreciation of natural foods and traditional food cultures while presenting information in a practical and easy-to-understand way. Kashmir's rich biodiversity provides many interesting food and plant resources, including aromatic herbs, traditional spices, fruits, nuts, and locally used medicinal plants.

Food can contribute to overall nutrition and wellbeing, but it should not automatically be considered a substitute for medical treatment. Traditional uses and modern scientific evidence are not always the same, so health-related information should be considered carefully. People with medical conditions, allergies, or those taking medicines should consult a qualified healthcare professional before using herbs or concentrated plant preparations for therapeutic purposes.

Sleep apnea is a common sleep-related breathing disorder that affects nearly one billion people around the world, but often goes undiagnosed. It results in repeated pauses in breathing several times in a night that last for more than 10 seconds during sleep. These pauses can occur several times in a night. Sleep apnea is usually due to an obstruction of the air passage during sleep. Noted music director Bappi Lahiri died recently due to a cardiac arrest triggered by sleep apnea.

Although there is much more awareness now than there was in 2009, one can still easily overlook the signs, which can be diagnosed (through sleep tests) and addressed with medical intervention.

German chamomile (Matricaria recutita) contains some compounds that can relax the nerves and muscles, promote sleep and even cause sedation. All these things are what you need to deal with apnea effectively.

In addition to all these excellent properties, the herb also has some anti-inflammatory properties which can eliminate any obstruction in the airways and hence also prevent snoring.

You can add a few teaspoons of the dried herb to hot water and steep for a couple of minutes or use it to make herbal bedtime tea that you should take about an hour before going to bed.
