Ginger Tea Helps Digestive Problems

Ginger Tea Helps Digestive Problems

Ginger is a fairly well known root, used in preparing many dishes. I even had ginger pancakes when I was in Holland (can't say that I was a big fan, but they certainly were memorable). But did you know ginger can help with digestive ailments? Here's what Anil Minocha, M.D. has to say in Natural Stomach Care:

"Ginger--This ubiquitous and delicious root helps just about any digestive problem you can think of. Use it as a general stomach tonic, as an anti-inflammatory for the bowels, as a digestive stimulant, and as an aid for leaky gut. Westerners prefer the dried or crystallized root, but the more potent form is prepared the Eastern way by purchasing a stalk of fresh ginger root, peeling, slicing a one-inch piece into several smaller pieces, and boiling for twenty minutes. Add some honey and drink a cup of fresh ginger tea twice a day."
