Coriander is such a food item that we use daily. Coriander leaves or dry coriander are used in food in almost all households. But, not everyone is fully aware of the properties of coriander. So let us tell you about all the properties of coriander which is a boon for your health. Coriander is nectar for your stomach. It works for acidity, migraine, headache, excessive bleeding, excessive thirst, thyroid, diabetes, cholesterol, fatty liver, obesity, indigestion, hormonal imbalance, and even as a wonderful Ayurvedic detox.

Ayurvedic Properties of Coriander (seeds and leaves):-
Rasa (Taste) – Kashaya (Astringent), Tikta (Bitter)
Guna (qualities) – Laghu (light to digest), Snigdha (greasy, oily)
Vipaka (post-digestive effect) – madhura (sweet)

It is best for all as it balances all the doshas- Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. It can be consumed in the form of CCF tea for fatty liver, diabetes, and digestive problems.

Here's how to consume it for thyroid and other lifestyle disorders:
Just soak 1 teaspoon ground coriander in 1 glass of water overnight. Boil it till it reduces to half in the morning, strain it, and enjoy this aromatic mood-boosting and metabolism-boosting coriander drink. You can also add curry leaves and dry rose petals while boiling for more benefits.
