GINGER


ginger is one of the most potent roots around, noted for its high nutritional value, protein content and for the minerals and vitamins it packs. It promotes healthy sweating, which can help detoxify the body when sick, and kills off bacteria, fungus and microorganisms on the skin. The elderly and the active can also benefit from ginger as it helps prevent inflammation and arthritic conditions.
Be aware, historically fresh ginger roots has been used to treat first aid-and second degree burns and to nourish and moisturize the skin. Because it increases circulation, ginger oil is sometimes used to treat varicose veins and cellulite. Plus, the fragrance of ginger oil has been known to be a great aphrodisiac.
