Detox with Ginger

How often do you detox? Have you ever used ginger to detox and cleanse the body?

Ginger root is a fantastic food that should be a staple in our diets. Ginger root has been used for thousands of years in Ayurveda and Chinese medicine for treating nausea, motion sickness, and inflammation, providing antioxidants to the body easing constipation, helping with malabsorption, healing compromised immune systems, repairing respiratory function, reducing bacterial infections, removing fungal infections, healing ulcers, and naturally improving diabetes, which is referenced in this Dr. Axe article.

Where do the benefits of ginger come from?

This Alternative Daily Article refers to ginger as a rhizome, a thick underground stem.

Why would you want to do a ginger detox?

Ginger is used in most detox programs because it " cleanses the body and stimulates digestion, circulation, and sweating. Its digestive actions may cleanse the build-up of waste and toxins in the colon, liver, and other organs.”

For ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixirs, these benefits are why we use whole-root ginger in the base of our elixirs. Our main ginger elixir is called “Classic.” Our Classic Ginger Elixir has only three whole food ingredients with nothing more: organic lemon juice, ginger root, and wildflower honey. We use the entire ginger root in our ginger elixirs to create the pure taste of this product. Our ginger elixirs do not use powders, artificial flavorings, or preservatives. 

ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixirs are the best-tasting and superior ginger elixir products available on the market that can be taken purely without the “gag” effect of many other elixirs. ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixirs are handmade in small batches and are not mass-produced, ensuring freshness and quality. We take the most care to ensure that the ingredients are hand-selected, individually bottled, and individually sealed with the result of your health and satisfaction in mind for each batch.

So, suppose you want to make a hot lemon drink, a tea, a ginger detox smoothie, a ginger detox juice, or simply create great-tasting foods and beverages to support a homeopathic, Ayurvedic, or naturopathic approach to general health support or recovery. In that case, ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixirs will provide you with the necessary flexibility. ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixirs are easy to use every time, with a unique, addictive, and one-of-a-kind taste that will give you the most consistent, whole-food ingredient potency in every bottle of our ginger elixirs to accomplish your goals!

My approach as a Type 1 Diabetic is to take ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixirs every morning in hot water to start my daily ginger detox on an empty stomach. The benefits of using any ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixir as a ginger detox first thing in the morning is that the body is already fasting, and the ability of the intestines to absorb and use the ginger is increased substantially. With the fourth ingredient used in ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixir, I will switch between all of these depending upon what is happening with my body or athletic approach.

The flexibility of ImmuneSchein Ginger Elixirs also allows me to take advantage of my ginger detox in many different ways with the flexibility that it provides, and you can see some of the ginger elixir recipes that are intended to spawn creativity.
