Want to eliminate bloat??

I often suffer from bloat for many reasons, flying (in an airplane), eating cold foods, irregular routine, and driving in the city.  All activities that increase the air in my system and therefore the bloat that goes with it.  One of the best ways I have found to combat the feeling of exploding is to drink a tonic made from cumin, coriander and fennel.  

Flat Belly Tea for Two!

• 500 mL water
• 1/4 tsp. cumin seeds
• 1/4 tsp. coriander seeds
• 1/4 tsp. fennel seeds

Set the water to boil.  Meanwhile, toast the seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat, until they release their aroma.  Transfer the seeds to a pestle and mortar and lightly bruise.  Remove the boiling water from the heat source and steep the seeds in the water for 5 minutes or cool enough to drink.  Strain out the seeds and serve.
