Your Holistic Prescription: Spices as Medicine

AC Art Of Food | Tasty Blog | This Week


Open your spice cabinet and you might just find your new pharmacy. That jar of turmeric, sprinkle of cinnamon, or pinch of garlic? They aren’t just flavor boosters—they’re powerful natural medicines that have been used for centuries across cultures to heal, protect, and restore balance. AC Art Of Food believes your spice rack is your medicine cabinet, and when you season with intention, you’re doing more than making food taste good—you’re fueling your body with anti-inflammatory, immune-supporting, and blood type–specific benefits.


Spices as Medicine: Why It Matters

Spices are packed with antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds, and phytonutrients that support every system in your body. Unlike synthetic medications, these natural seasonings work gently and synergistically—healing while nourishing.

Benefits of healing spices:

• Support digestion and gut health

• Lower inflammation (a root cause of most chronic disease)

• Balance blood sugar and hormones

• Boost immune defenses

• Improve circulation and brain clarity

And when you match spices to your blood type blueprint? You unlock targeted wellness.

Spices as Medicine

🩸 Spices by Blood Type: What Your Body Needs

Type O: Fire Up with Cayenne & Garlic

Type O thrives with bold, stimulating spices that boost circulation and aid digestion.

• Cayenne pepper: Increases metabolism, reduces inflammation, and supports cardiovascular health

• Garlic: Antimicrobial, lowers blood pressure, and strengthens immunity

💡 Pro Tip: Add garlic and cayenne to roasted veggies or soups for an energizing, healing kick.


Type A: Soothe with Turmeric & Ginger

Type A individuals are prone to stress and digestive sensitivity—so calming, anti-inflammatory spices work best.

• Turmeric: Anti-inflammatory powerhouse, supports liver detox

• Ginger: Eases digestion, balances cortisol, and soothes nausea

💡 Pro Tip: Brew turmeric-ginger tea with a dash of Abstract Logi’s Sugar Spice for calming warmth.


Type B: Balance with Sage & Peppermint

Type B thrives on balance and immune strength. Sage and peppermint provide grounding and digestive ease.

• Sage: Supports memory, hormones, and immunity

• Peppermint: Calms the gut, reduces headaches, and refreshes focus

💡 Pro Tip: Toss sage into grain bowls or sip peppermint tea after meals for digestive harmony.


Type AB: Refresh with Parsley & Chamomile

Type AB needs light, soothing support that balances the mix of A and B traits.

• Parsley: Detoxifying, rich in vitamin C, supports kidney and liver health

• Chamomile: Calms stress, aids sleep, and soothes digestion

💡 Pro Tip: Sprinkle fresh parsley on meals for a bright boost; sip chamomile tea in the evening to reset.
