Ginger - Is one of my favourite spices! I love the warmth and flavour it brings to my cooking and enjoy just adding it liberally to stir fry's. Its also a great addition to freshly made juices and goes well with apple and carrot juice. Give it a try you'll love it.
Ginger is well known as a digestive aid and has anti-inflammatory properties. it is a warming circulatory stimulant and is a useful remedy for nausea when travelling as well as in pregnancy.
To relieve nausea try slicing some fresh ginger 1.25 cm and adding it to a cup of hot water. Have as a tea up to 4 times per day. This can also help to relieve the symptoms of colds and flu.
For aching muscles rub several drops of ginger oil with a tablespoon of almond oil onto the sore areas.
