Originally published Dec 2012
What a powerful herb! Ginger has been around for centuries. It is one of those herbs that everyone should have in their kitchen.  It is so potent and good for many different ailments and overall maintenance of optimal health. I love ginger. I always have some on hand. I make tea with it and use it in my gravies.


Now of course you know I cannot have a herb in my kitchen and not know what it's good for. Well I can but what good would that do. I need to know the power of the natural things that God has placed on the earth for man to thrive.  So I've done the research and now I'm sharing with you. See how much I love you? I'm saving you the time and hassle of searching for the information yourself.  LOL. So, without any further ado, here are the health benefits of ginger:

  1. May be used to stimulate blood flow to the extremities in cases of blood circulation problems
