If you often suffer from nausea or discomfort in your stomach, ginger could be your savior. A simple and effective way is to just add it to water. How can this natural spice improve your well-being, according to the Harvard Health website.
How ginger affects well-being
Ginger should be added to hot water to make a drink that reduces bloating and nausea, while also helping to fight inflammation.
The product promotes effective digestion and alleviates nausea. It has long been known as a safe remedy for vomiting, especially for those who are pregnant or undergoing chemotherapy.
It contains a compound called gingerol, which aids the digestion process. The product can also be used to relieve bloating.
Research has also shown that consuming ginger can help alleviate pain and inflammation, such as muscle pain, and also control inflammation associated with Crohn's disease and lupus. Ginger also contains antioxidants, which may help slow down or prevent cell damage.
How to make ginger tea
The British Heart Foundation recommends ginger tea as a "heart-healthy hot drink." You can make it at home by grating or slicing a small piece of peeled ginger root. Then, pour boiling water over it and let it steep for about 10 minutes.
Ginger tea can also be purchased in the form of tea bags. It has a longer shelf life and may have a milder taste than tea made from fresh ginger.
Dietitian Candice O'Neil mentioned that ginger root can be helpful for menstrual pain and conditions related to arthritis.
She also mentioned that ginger may play a role in stabilizing blood sugar levels.
O'Neil suggested storing fresh ginger in the freezer, which will help keep it longer and allow you to use it when needed.
You can also purchase ginger in powdered, dried, or pickled forms.
