Curried Chicken with Cauliflower Rice

July 31, 2013 By Chevron Island Physio

curry

This curry is a perfect dinner for a winters night and the curried cauliflower rice is delicious!
Not only does it taste great but the spices in this curry have so benefits I will only begin to touch the surface!

Garlic is a powerful anti-inflammatory reducing symptoms of many inflammatory diseases. It is also anti-bacterial helping to rid the body of bacteria and virus. Garlic has numerous cardiovascular benefits and also increases iron metabolism (iron is essential to good health).

Ginger can aid digestion while increasing absorption of vital nutrients, decreases flatulence and nausea and also provides anti-inflammatory properties.

Cumin increases immunity, contains iron and aids digestion.

Coriander is a powerful anti inflammatory, helping with conditions such as arthritis, helps relieve indigestions, contains many minerals such as potassium, calcium, iron and magnesium and a range of vitamins such as folic acid, vitamin A, beta-carotene and Vitamin C which is also a powerful antioxidant (helps prevent disease and keeps our skin looking youthful!)

Lastly, Cayenne pepper, one of the most amazing spices there is, can help you to cleanse and detoxify your system, has anti-irritant properties to help with coughs and stomach problems, is anti-bacterial and anti-fungal – breaks up mucus and relieves flu like symptoms, can ease migraines and headaches and is an amazing digestive aid!

Who needs supplements when you can get so many benefits from herbs and spices!
