Ginger and Women’s Health

When I traveled to NY three years ago to visit my sister, and see my nephew who had returned from teaching in Thailand for 3 years with a beautiful Thai fiancee, a family friend gave me a bag of sweet ginger chews. Now, I have a sweet tooth, and enjoyed eating these chews, throughout the month. I noticed, my digestion was feeling better, I could sleep better, my blood pressure was lower, sounds incredible but I DID notice changes, and being the researcher that I am, I found that ginger is an overall antioxidant and tonic for the body.

Helps with:

Circulation
Nausea

Arthritis
Tumors
Cholesterol
Blood pressure
PMS and hot flashes

Ginger does not generally have side effects but it’s best to take it in moderation to   avoid  heartburn, diarrhea, and general stomach discomfort.  A few ginger chews several times a week will give you the healthy benefits of its nutrients.

Ginger can also be taken in teas, seasonings or in capsules. I prefer the chews, so now keep 3 oz of ginger chews in my office because I love sweets and its the only way I will eat ginger.

To your health!

About Mariestips

I am a Baby Boomer who took charge of her health during the change of life (menopause). When I was starting to feel unbalanced due to hormonal fluctuations, I took my life long interest and study of natural health, and researched on what I could do to help myself as I did not want to go through the traditional route of taking hormone replacement therapy. I combined my life-long interest in natural health with my focus on positive thinking and spirituality to maintain a good attitude. A friend once mentioned why not share what I know with others, and here I am with "Marie's Tips". Since I have a holistic approach to life, and I am also an inspirational writer, I will be sharing non-religious, spiritual, inspirational and positive articles.

    I used to throw out any pieces of ginger I found in my food, but luckily I’ve now grown a liking to it. 🙂

    It’s a good habit to have in drinking ginger tea; I will get some tea soon because the chews have sugar and sometimes I stay away from sugar.
