Why is ginger so healthy for you anyways? Here are a few reasons:
- Anti-Inflammatory action (example: studies have shown relief from arthritis)
- Offers protection against many cancers
- Pregnant? Ginger is safe and effective at relieving nausea and vomiting
- Antioxidant properties

Don’t limit your ginger usage to smoothies alone; use it when sauteing vegetables, making homemade salad dressings, rice dishes, and anything else that could use a little spice. Now that you’re sold on ginger, it’s time to blend up this delicious smoothie.
