Ginger has been used for centuries to aid digestion, and help with motion sickness. In recent years, it has also been found to be effective for cooling the fires of chronic inflammation (the subject of my last Health Talk) and fighting viral infections.
Earlier studies have found ginger to be helpful in breast, prostate, cervical, lung and colon cancer. Now a recent study at the Iran University of Medical Science has discovered that ginger can also be very effective in fighting several types of cancer including ovarian cancer! This is especially important since ovarian cancer has been very difficult to fight. Now there is a natural, non-toxic way to help!
One to the best ways to get a good dose of ginger is by making “Gingeraid”. You can go to http://drhogg.com/making-gingeraid/ for the easy recipe for making Gingeraid from fresh ginger root.
