Au naturel Christmas special presents : Aye up Ginge!



‘tis the season to avoid the sneezies, mingling with family and the cold weather are big triggers for catching and maintaining a flu. So today’s food is GINGER!!!!! (Sorry I love redheads and ginger cats’ lol), this food has been nagging on my mind for a while. So, this is most definitely an appropriate time to highlight some of the roots’ healing qualities.



Sore Throat - Boil some water and add a dash of cinnamon, a little piece of ginger, 1 tsp honey and drink.

For a persistent cough - Take a half teaspoonful of ginger powder, a pinch of clove with a pinch of cinnamon powder and honey in a cup of boiled water and drink it as tea.

Headaches - Dilute a paste of ginger powder, about 1/2 a teaspoon, with water and apply to your forehead.

Colds - Boil a teaspoonful of ginger powder in one quart of water and inhale the steam - helps alleviate colds.


More factuals down here mate! :D
