Did you know that ginger is a natural detoxifier?
During this time of year we are stressing our immune systems from overworking during a busy Christmas season or overindulgences of sugar and alcohol due to many festivities.
Even cold weather and decreased vitamin D from lack of sunshine makes our immune systems have to work that much harder.
So let’s talk about the benefits of ginger.
Ginger is a root that has anti-viral properties which makes it a soothing and healthful natural medicine during winter months when colds and flus are at a high.
Ginger is also effective with nausea and used commonly as a digestive aid.
After the indulgences of the holidays, many people are thinking of easy ways to help detox the body.
Try cutting and boiling a 2" piece in water for 20 minutes or grating some in a cup of boiling water, add a spoon of honey to sweeten (optional) and enjoy!
It’s a great way to soothe and warm the body in the cold winter months.
