1. Impedes Motion Sickness

Ginger tea can soothe nerves and prevent vomiting, as well as eradicate headaches and migraines. It also keeps you from being nauseous during a trip, so drink a cup of ginger tea before setting off on your travels.

2. Combats Stomach Discomfort

Ginger tea is ideal in reducing stomach irritation and aids in digestion, thereby improving food absorption and avoiding possible tummy aches from too much food intake. Unnecessary belching can also be thwarted by ginger tea. What’s more, ginger tea enhances your appetite when you’re feeling bloated, by helping to release gastric acids that aid in digestion.

3. Reduces Inflammation

Ginger tea can ease inflammation of the joints, which is commonly referred to as rheumatoid arthritis. It is also effective in alleviating tired, sore muscles and joints. A warm ginger tea soak can lessen swelling and puffiness. If you have athlete’s foot, ginger tea is recommended as a foot soak to lessen the painful burning sensation that comes with itching.

4. Fights Common Respiratory Problems

Drinking ginger tea is recommended if you’re suffering from common respiratory diseases such as cold and cough. Ginger aids in loosening up phlegm and expanding your lungs, so you can recover quickly from difficulty in breathing. It also helps appease allergies and constant sneezing due to hay fever.

5. Encourages Normal Blood Circulation

Consuming a cup of ginger tea can help improve blood flow, as well as help prevent chills, fever and excessive sweating. The active components of ginger, such as minerals and amino acids, help make the blood flow smoothly, preventing the onset of cardiovascular disease.

6. Remedies Menstrual Discomfort

If you are a woman suffering from menstrual cramps, try placing a hot towel drenched in ginger tea on your uterine area to overcome the pain and relax the muscles. Drinking a cup of ginger tea can also provide a soothing effect.

7. Strengthens Immunity

Ginger tea has antioxidants that help improve the immune system. Drinking a cup of ginger tea every day can also help foil potential risks of a stroke by inhibiting fatty deposits from clogging the arteries. Ginger has also been proven successful in lowering cholesterol levels and preventing cancer.

8. Relieves Stress

Taking a whiff of ginger tea can help improve your mood and give you a sunny disposition. It leaves you feeling refreshed and calm, and if you’re having a bad day, all those negative vibes will dissipate. Ginger tea is a remarkable stress reliever because of its comforting and relaxing scent.

Mother Nature is so amazing in that coconut trees produce their own brand of soy sauce, they are called liquid aminos or coconut aminos. 60% less sodium than soy sauce and so terrifically good for your body’s overall digestive health. 

The dark, amino acid liquid harvested directly from coconut tree sap. Containing 17 naturally-occurring amino acids, this sap is combined with mineral-rich sea salt to create a soy-sauce-like “aminos” liquid that can help flavor salads, raw vegan dishes, sauces or even Chinese stir-fried cuisine.

Think of it as a natural replacement for soy sauce, but with a deeper and more complex taste. You’ve got to try this to believe that it really comes from coconut trees!

And there’s another huge benefit, too: This “liquid aminos” product has absolutely no reactive MSG-like effects. That’s rare because even in the natural products industry, there are amino acid products that contain a small amount of naturally-occurring glutamic acid that can have an MSG-like effect on those who are sensitive to it (like me). But the aminos from this coconut sap are completely unadulterated and non-hydrolyzed, so they remain in their natural form and have no negative effects on people sensitive to MSG.
