A cooling household spice that promotes healthy digestion* Coriander is one of the best herbs for supporting digestion without aggravating pitta. It enkindles the digestive fire while simultaneously cooling and soothing the GI tract. It removes excess heat in the body making it useful in cooling pitta-related imbalances associated with menopause. It also supports proper function of the kidneys and healthy urination. The seeds combine well with Cumin and Fennel to make an excellent digestive tea.* Herbs are their most potent at the time of harvest, and they slowly lose their potency over time. If kept in airtight containers and out of direct sunlight, they can remain usable for many years. For best results, we suggest using our bulk herbs within two years of purchase.
