Hello Hivers and Nature Lovers!
The topic for this challenge is Natural pharmacy, and this is my entry for this week's contest!
Ginger (Zingiber officinale)
I have not seen a ginger plant in my entire life! I have yet to see a ginger plant.
Ginger is native to warmer parts of Asia, such as China, Japan, and India, and now is grown in parts of South American and Africa. It is also now grown in the Middle East use as medicine and with food.
But ginger is abundant from any US grocery. It is an ingredient for cooking.
A great remedy
Ginger is also a popular home remedy for
- nausea
- stomach pain
- constipation
- morning sickness
- pain relief, including menstrual pain
- indigestion
- osteoarthritis
- may help with weight loss
- may drastically lower blood sugars and improve heart disease risk factors.
Contains gingerol
The unique fragrance and flavor of ginger come from its natural oils, the most important of which is gingerol.
Gingerol is the main bioactive compound in ginger. It’s responsible for much of ginger’s medicinal properties.
Ginger tea
It is easy to make ginger tea!
Put four thin slices of ginger in a teacup. Pour in ht water and allow ti steep for one minute. You may add honey or sugar to sweetened the tea. I prefer it as is!
