POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. Ajwain Potli and Garlic
Carom seeds (ajwain), as well as garlic, are historically known for having strong anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties. When combined together, they can be very powerful and help relieve cold and congestion in your little one. They are very simple to mix together and when administered to a coughing child, will work effectively. To make the potli (pouch), you will need some carom seeds, some garlic, and a muslin cloth. Begin by roasting 2 cloves of garlic along with 1 tablespoon of ajwain on a small tawa or pan. Allow it to cool for a bit before making the pouch. It must be noted that the pouch needs to be tight in order to be used properly.
