Ginger Juice for Health

Have you ever tried ginger juice before?

Those who ever tried spa might probably tasted ginger juice, normally after a long body massage. I know Urban Retreat Spa gives a good one. I tried this one from Culpeper, a herbalist brand from UK, which is 100% organic and mixed together with Manuka Honey. This ginger juice can be added with water, hot water works best and drink a whole cup after meal to ease the tummy. This brand also works well as flavoring for cooking and baking as well. Roasted chicken goes well with this too!

* However, it's a bit pricey with RM70 per bottle at any Living Quarters outlet.

For those who are curious about ginger and its medicinal properties, there is a wide range of benefits of ginger such as nausea, digestive problems, circulation and arthritis. Nausea caused during pregnancy or by travelling is one of the benefits of ginger root. Ginger is also known to have the ability to calm an upset stomach and to promote the flow of bile. Stomach cramps can be eased and circulation can also be improved. Ginger supports a healthy cardiovascular system by making platelets less sticky which in turn reduces circulatory problems.

Ginger oil used for massage can help relieve painful arthritis due to its anti-inflammatory properties. Ginger is often included in many herbal decongestants and can help to minimise the symptoms of respiratory conditions, colds and allergies.

You could also try and do your own juice at home. Just cut a few slices and add some water and boil it until the extracts come up from the roots. Alternatively add some sugar or honey to ease the strong taste.

If you still find it tough to cook, just purchase powdered ginger from any organic store, Justlife at Ikano has it or simply buy this one at Village Grocer. This taste great too! Retail price at RM17.90!




There's also another brand ALIVE , which is considerably good purchase . RM35.90 per bottle.
