REJUVENATING WITH GINGER!



I love Ginger in my food. It has a way of turning an otherwise bland and boring dish into an exciting meal! But besides spicing up a dish, Ginger is a superfood with very potent medicinal and skincare properties.

Ginger has traditionally been used to help inflammatory joint diseases such as arthritis. It is also known to help with circulation and therefore promoting cardiovascular health.

Studies have also suggested that Ginger may be useful in keeping cholesterol levels under control, although how this works is not fully understood. Ginger also has warming expectorant action on the upper respiratory tract, good for treating colds and influenza.

And for your skin, Ginger helps fight inflammations that could give rise to acne or psoriasis. It’s an amazing antioxidant for fighting skin damage thereby slowing down the skins ageing process.
Another fantastic thing about Ginger is that it smoothens and tones the skin and is a very good weapon for fighting age spots – yes those little brown spots that slowly creep up on you as you grow younger!

You can target those age spot by simply rubbing a fresh slice of Ginger directly onto the dark spots 2-3 times a day.

However, the best way to get the full benefit of Ginger internally and externally is to drink it!  Cut up a few fresh Ginger slices, put in a mug, pour in some boiling water and let it soak for about 5 to 10 minutes. When it’s cooled down a bit, add a little honey and stir well and enjoy. With time you’ll forget where the age spots were!
Have a lovely week.

P.S. Even though Ginger is known to help with nausea, it should still be used with great caution in pregnancy as it’s known to stimulate blood flow. Always seek advice from your Medical Practitioner before using any herbs.
