Ajwain Water

Ajwain (carom seed) water is a traditional Indian postpartum remedy, commonly given to new mothers to ease gas, bloating, and digestion after birth. Boiled in water and sipped warm, it has a pungent, thyme-like flavor. It's considered safe in typical food and beverage amounts while breastfeeding and is a warming, comforting tradition.

📈Traditionally used as a galactagogue in Ayurvedic postpartum care; evidence is anecdotal.
