Here are four kinds of herbal drinks suggested by Dr. Zaidul Akbar to drink in the morning:
1. Warm water and lime
Dr. Zaidul Akbar, a founder of the Jurus Sehat Rasulullah (JSR), explained that drinking warm water mixed with lime is good for the health of the body. He even suggested mixing turmeric and black pepper in it.
"The combination of these ingredients ensures that the stomach will not be hungry until noon. You will also no longer be drawn to other unhealthy foods.," he said.
But if you don't have lime, it is recommended to drink warm water mixed with a bit of salt. He explained salt contains "trace elements" (minerals) that can improve your mood in the morning.
2. Dates Water
For those who have digestive problems, Dr. Zaidul Akbar recommends drinking date water in the morning. This is also an example of the Prophet Muhammad Shalallahu a'laihi wasallam's habit of always preparing dates at his house.
"One of the issues that people with digestive problems face, according to science, is that their intestines are stretched. As a result of this stretching, some intestines enter the bloodstream. This gives rise to germs that cause autoimmune diseases, cancer, and even degenerative diseases. "
It turns out that dates can be consumed to treat intestinal strain. Dates contain resistant starch and easily digestible amino acids. DR Zaidul Akbar also said: "This water is actually amino acid water. Dates contain amino acids and enzymes necessary for the body, and the raw material is amino acids. "
3. Ginger tea
Dr. Zaidul Akbar explained that the morning is not the best time to overeat. "Ghrelin (hunger hormone) levels are very low in the morning, according to my understanding, so don't overeat. But that doesn't mean I don't want you to eat; rather, eat good food if you want to eat..," he said.
He suggested drinking hot water and ginger, or what is often called ginger tea. If you don't like the taste, you can add a little lemon juice to make it taste better. Another option is lemongrass tea with turmeric, lime, and honey. "The drink will last until noon." said Dr. Zaidur Akbar.

They include vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and high-quality proteins, among other things.” said Dr. Zaidur Akbar.
