Strictly speaking health; there have been numerous studies conducted on the power of ginger, particularly its anti-inflammatory properties. Research suggests that regular consumption of ginger helps reduce pain caused by inflammation, such as joint pain or muscle soreness. This could potentially help those suffering from arthritis or other chronic conditions related to inflammation. These effects may also be beneficial for athletes who experience muscle cramping due to intense exercise or activity. In addition to its anti-inflammatory benefits, ginger is also known for its ability to aid digestion and reduce nausea symptoms due to motion sickness or pregnancy-related morning sickness. 

 

Ginger has a spicy, warm, bit peppery like red pepper and a subtly sweet taste. Ginger just adds a beautifully simple yet complex dimension to our microground tea mixes.
