Cleansing Alkaline Food #8: Ginger
By Energise Ross
Ginger is regarded as an excellent carminative and intestinal spasmolytic.
Modern scientific research has revealed that ginger possesses numerous therapeutic properties including antioxidant effects, an ability to inhibit the formation of inflammatory compounds, and direct anti-inflammatory effects.
Ginger promote detoxification specifically by increasing the movement of food through the intestines, thanks to compounds called gingerols and shogaols.
It can be a great addition to your favourite vegetables, can be used to flavour juices, soups and smoothies and can even be eaten raw if you like it spicy (like me!).
