Ginger Root for arrythmas

[Guest guest]

Jo Ann,

Question?

Would chewing the candied ginger root that comes in coin shaped

slices add up to a necessary level of substance to help clear up

chloresterol, and maybe help avoid arrythmas? NG

 

 

Hi Nora,

Well it just depends on the source, really. I have obtained some

organic ginger slices from the health food store which in moderation

may be beneficial. However, unless it specifically states that the

sugar is not " refined " , it may just add to your problems

(triglycerides)in the long run! I used the ginger slices myself,

initially in herbal teas. It is a more processed, weaker form of

ginger actually and to be truthful, I doubt that it would provide

much of a cholesterol lowering benefit, although it may help with

digestive problems or nausea if its not that severe.

 

The fresh raw ginger root which you obtain from the produce aisle at

your local grocery or health food stores is the best way to get

ginger root. Sometimes if you search around you can obtain the

younger more tender roots which are easier to grate up and work

with. Then again it is just as effective in tea form (either bulk

form or teabags are just as good).

 

If you think grating ginger is difficult, you should try coconut! :-)

Cheers, JoAnn
