🇮🇳 FACTS ABOUT INDIA🇮🇳
==========================
😳WHY❓❓❓
Why people prefer Paan🍃 after meals in Indian Traditional
Paan 🍃has many variations. Slaked lime (chuna) paste is commonly added to bind the leaves. The betel leaf used to make paan has not only traditional uses but also health benefits.
According to Ayurveda, chewing paan after meals eases digestion as it increases secretion of digestive juices, reduces bloating of stomach, relieves constipation and destroys intestinal parasites
A typical paan contains coconut powder, gulkand (sweetened rose petals), cloves, saunf (fennel), and red katha paste. Other variants contain tobacco and areca nut, both of which are harmful and carcinogenic in nature and hence, should be avoided.
FAT BURNING: Since betel leaves are the main ingredient of paan, their chemical composition is helpful in fat loss. This is because eating paan can lead to increase in metabolic rate and hence, lead to weight loss
Betel leaves are nutrient packed with riboflavin, calcium, vitamin C and carotene. The components of paan such as rose petals, cloves, coconut powder and saunf are individually nutritionally strong and together make a healthy combination which can be consumed post-dinner or lunch. However, maintain a gap of at least 30 minutes between paan and your meal.
