PREVENT MOTION SICKNESS

SOOTHE STOMACH UPSET

RELIEVE MIGRAINE HEADACHES

REDUCE  CLOTTING IN BLOOD


Millions of people worldwide swear by ginger as a potent healing food.


RELIEF FOR MIGRAINES

Researches is still very preliminary ,so experts are reluctant to recommend specific treatment plans for using  ginger  to flgt migraines .if you feel headaches coming on, you may want to try taking1/3 teaspoon of fresh  or powdered ginger.

AID FOR ARTHRITIS

Are the joints in your fingers so stiff and sore that you can’t fumble the childproof cap off the aspirin bottle? You may want to add ginger to your medicine chest.

To soothe arthritis pain, recommends brewing a mild tea, again, putting three or four slices of fresh ginger in a cup of boiling water. You can also try taking ½ teaspoon powder ginger or up to an ounce (about 6 teaspoons) of fresh ginger once a day.

HELP FOR THE BLOOD

Blood clots can be a good thing. When you cut your finger, for example, plateriets-components in blood that help it clot –help “stick” the Wound together so that it can heal.

But these sticky platelets can also cling to artery walls and to each other. When that happens, clots  stop being  beneficial and become something  to worry  about . Mani people routinely take aspirin to help keep their blood clear of clots that could lead strokes or heart attacks.
