Ginger is used in therapies to control nausea, vomitting. It also helps in sweating thus assists detoxification process in the body

When you use ginger for any purpose, remove its peel. never use it with 'skin on' as the skin will nullify the good properties of ginger.

It has antiinflammtory properties.

Avoid ginger or use in lesser amounts when you suffer from acidity.

It helps relieve gas and control gas formation.

Tulsi Tea (organic India)

[JUSTIFY]I prefer home made fresh teas. As I run short of tulsi leaves, bought a pack of organic india's tulsi leaves this time. It is a mix of three kinds of Indian basil viz., Ram tulsi, Krishna tulsi and Vana thulsi. Infuses unique indian basil flavour........

Steeping method is same as the ginger tea. I prefered only two pinches of tea leaves as the flavour is strong.

Mixed in few drops of honey and it tasted heavenly!.....




If you are using any brand tea leaves do mention about it for others to try it out.

Weightloss tea i never wanted to buy from stores. I am comfortable with honey + ginger + lemon + warm water (you can call this home made weightloss tea) which also boosts immunity without any harmful side effects. Hence i could not suggest ay weightloss tea. Let us wait and see what others' suggestions are.
