Its Latin name is Zingiber officinale. Its medicinal properties are found in the root (aka: rhizome).
Both culinary spice and herbal medicine, ginger has been used by cultures worldwide for centuries as a heat clearing remedy for colds & fevers, to combat inflammation such as arthritis, and as a digestive aid. Ginger is probably best known for its ability to relieve nausea. Several randomized, controlled trials support ginger’s use as an anti-emetic for nausea from several conditions ~ aiding women suffering from morning sickness, resolving chemotherapy-associated nausea, post-operative nausea and general motion sickness. Ginger is also is an anti-microbial herb, is cardiovascular protective, blood sugar balancing, and has potent anti-cancer and neuro-protective properties. These are some of the reasons to love & eat ginger regularly in your diet, friends!
What makes ginger so spicy? Biochemistry-wise, it’s mainly the phenolic compound called Gingerol, a relative to the spice in chili peppers and black pepper, which is responsible for ginger’s spicy taste.

February is Heart Health Month. 💗 Let’s love up our hearts with more hugs and Hawthorn ~ Leaf, Flower & Berry. Traditional herbal medicines from around the world consider Hawthorn the most valuable tonic herb for maintaining a healthy heart. Hawthorn dried tea is fine to use. If you are currently taking heart medications, speak with your health professional before adding in any hawthorn supplementation.
