Ginger is a species of plant belonging to the Zingiberaceae family. Originating from the island of Java (Indonesia), even as from China and India, it entered and spread across the European continent through the Crusades. This plant tends to grow on a large scale in countries with tropical climates. Around 1600, ginger arrived in Brazil through the Portuguese, acquiring another denomination of "mangarataia". Currently, ginger is very popular and consumed on the Asian continent, mainly in the following countries: Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, and China. It's used as a culinary seasoning in sauces, infusions, and essential oil for massages.

In Chinese culture, "Gan Jiang" is the name given to ginger root. In alternative medicine dubbed "Ayurveda," this powerful plant is considered the "universal medicament" to treat and prevent various diseases.

Ginger is digestive and anti-inflammatory par excellence. Possibly, it is one of the most sought-after natural teas as a complement in the treatment of flu and colds, even as in the elimination of breath (bad breath). In addition, dehydrated ginger tea can help resolve symptoms that cause indisposition and prevent excessive accumulation of fluids. By preventing fluid retention, you will at the same time favour the elimination of body fat. Combining all these advantages, you will also be contributing to the slimming of your body. If you want to lose weight, you must regularly adopt a healthy diet and exercise.

How to prepare the tea: put one tablespoon of dehydrated ginger in a liter of water and boil for five to ten minutes. When you have your tea prepared, let it rest for a few minutes, covering it with the lid. You can consume ginger root tea, cold or hot. As it is a simple tea, you can add nutmeg, green tea, cinnamon or lemongrass.
