Ginger
Topic summary contributed by volunteer(s): Randy
Ginger may reduce hypertension, inflammation, DNA breakage, nausea, migraines, and amyloid beta build-up, which is involved in Alzheimer’s disease. It may also reduce DNA damage from radiation and provide some protection from industrial pollutants. Ginger is an ingredient in chai tea, a drink considered to be a good antioxidant source. Adding ginger to a healthy pumpkin pie recipe makes it even healthier.
