Diet for Weigth Loss 

One tablespoon of whole cumin would provide 23 kilocalories out of which it has 1 g fat, 3 g carbohydrates, 1 g protein and 1 g fiber. Cumin seeds have been used since ages in different culinary preparations and also provide various health benefits. One of the predominant medicinal property of jeera is that stimulates appetite and aids digestion in the stomach. It also helps to reduce the pain caused due to indigestion, flatulence or stomach heaviness. Jeera also helps to purify blood. But jeera when used as a sole therapy for weight loss may not work. Jeera on its own doesn't provide more calories and fat and it can not be used to replace any meals, as this would be very impractical. For weight loss you need to make permanent lifestyle modifications which involve having a control over your diet and exercising on a regular basis. You can definitely have jeera along with your meals or after the meals to purify blood, aid digestion, avoid flatulence and for general well being. But for a perfect weight loss consult a registered dietician who would give you a diet plan which suits you according to your lifestyle, eating habits and medical conditions along with specific exercises.
