I love ginger!

[carmaela11]

This may be silly as I am sure many of you are aware of the wonderful healing properties of ginger but I just wanted to say how much I love it. I have a tooth that is in need of a root canal and causes me great pain. I don't like taking Tylenol or Motrin as they take a while to work, and also have to work through the liver. I don't want to "gunk up" my liver as I have had trouble with gall stones in the past, which result in an imbalance in the biliary system, which happens in the liver. Instead I brew myself a cup of lemon and ginger tea. The lemon and honey are great for detoxing the liver and the ginger makes my tooth pain go away, usually by the time the cup is half empty. I don't boil the water, I just let it get very hot, steep the tea for 5 minutes and it's good to go! Works faster than having to wait for the over the counter pills to dissolve in my stomach and it tastes good too.
