Nutritional values

When it comes to colds, vitamin C is on everyone's lips - here in the truest sense of the word and at over 100 percent of the recommended daily dose. Vitamin C does valuable work in supporting the immune system. It is just as important for the gums, muscles and bones as it is for the absorption of iron, which means it also has a positive effect on the oxygen content of the blood.

Cumin may not be pleasant for your children because they have a different sense of taste than adults. You can simply leave it out.
