It is great for blood circulation, helps dissolve blood clots in the arteries, and reduce the levels of cholesterol in the blood, therefore helping to reduce heart attacks, and prevents circulatory problems in the extremities.
It is also great for motion sickness. There have been some studies on this and ginger has been found to help reduce the feelings of motion sickness significantly.

The best way to treat most problems is to drink as a tea. Also great for those times when you have eaten too much, or eaten something that seems to be sitting in your stomach, causing you to feel uncomfortable
When I am not enjoying a cup of ginger tea, I am drinking either green or white tea.
-
cut up several slices of ginger
- add to water
- brew (the longer the better)
Grate ginger, add to water and squeeze the liquid out to use as a dressing on foods.
I try to make a cup most nights, after my evening meal.

Thank you for this information. I take ginger tea everyday morning and this information makes me more happy and encouragement to continue without stopping. I had doubt whether taking ginger tea will cause increased blood pressure.

I take an infusion ginger and lemon tea, as well as an Aloe Vera organic drink before meals, to help my diagnosed excess acid in my stomach. It has much improved since the introduction of the ginger tea.

My lovely wife gave me ginger tea for the first time tonight to calm an upset stomach. The effects were almost immediate, but an hour later I had very bad gas. She asked me what I had eaten, and when I analyzed my diet the past 5 days, I realized I had eaten 5 pounds of cheese. I went crazy on pizza shipped 500 miles from my hometown and now release of gas won’t stop. Any ideas?
