🍪 Is Gingerbread Good For You? 🍪

Published: Sun, 11/24/19

Yes, well no, but kind of...?

This week has been all about ginger.

Some people love it, and some people hate it, but the body is definitely part of the former.

Ginger comes from the same family as Turmeric and Cardomom, the first of which is well-known for it's anti-inflammatory and brain-boosting effects, and the latter of which can help with blood sugar. Clearly, both flavour and health benefits run in the family.

Ginger is great for many things from digestion to sickness to muscle pain (gingerbread doesn't quite work the same, unfortunately!). Some of the most noteable benefits include:

Lowers blood sugar
Anti-inflammatory
Reduces muscle pain
Reduces menstrual pain
Helps with indigestion
Helps with sickness
Can help with osteoarthritis
Can help with brain function

You can get most of the benefits of ginger from just including it more in your food. However, you can also drink it as a tea or blend it with fruit juice to be taken as a shot.

If you want to really find out the ins and outs of your body, understand what affects it, and how to overcome issues you thought you couldn't, then book in for a consultation.

If you have any questions, then feel free to contact me and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

I hope you've had another great week, and next week is even better!

Speak to you next week,

John
