Heart attack cases are more common in cold weather.

Heart attack cases are more common in cold weather. But Ayurveda experts say that a sweet and sour thing in our kitchen can help take care of heart health in winter.

In winter, the risk of heart-related problems increases. Especially the incidence of heart attack is seen more in this season. But Ayurveda experts say that the sour-sweet tamarind present in our kitchen can help take care of heart health in winter. Apart from this, tamarind not only strengthens immunity but is also effective in preventing cancer.

According to Dr. Amit Kumar, head of Shatayu Ayurveda and Panchakarma Center located in Hardoi, Uttar Pradesh, tamarind has cholesterol-reducing properties. Due to the increase in cholesterol levels in winter, there is a risk of blockage in the veins, which increases the chances of heart attack. But cholesterol can be reduced by consuming tamarind.

Dr. Amit explains that antioxidants and flavonoids present in tamarind increase the immunity of our body. These antioxidants fight free radicals present in the body and reduce oxidative damage. Due to this, the cells of the body are safe, and the risk of serious illness like cancer is also reduced.

Tamarind contains flavonoids, which help in keeping the veins clean by reducing bad cholesterol. This reduces the risk of heart attack. Apart from this, tamarind also reduces inflammation, which is necessary to improve the immunity of the body.

Dr. Amit says that tamarind is also beneficial for the digestive system. The acids found in it improve digestion. Consumption of tamarind provides relief in stomach problems, such as constipation, diarrhea and stomach pain.

Tamarind is rich in fiber and is low in calories, which helps in weight loss. In addition, the amino acids present in it work to strengthen the body's tissue.

How to consume tamarind?

Tamarind can be used in chutneys, water, or soups. If you want, you can also eat it directly. But keep in mind that avoid consuming excessive amounts.
