Dear Living Well Daily Reader,
Seems like yesterday doesn’t it…
When you could fit into your favorite dress or jacket and still have a little wiggle room?
These days you’re lucky to fit comfortably into your sweats.
But weight gain doesn’t just affect your wardrobe. It can also put you on the fast track to some deadly conditions like diabetes and heart disease.
Fortunately, researchers have found that an ordinary spice can help you shed pounds and nip these diseases in the bud.
I’m taking about ginger.
And for many years, scientists have been studying its medicinal powers.
Recently, researchers focused on studies that showed ginger could help you fight obesity and the diseases associated with it.
After sifting through mountains of research, the scientists made some incredible finds…
Ginger can help:
- Improve your metabolism
- Improve your carbohydrate digestion
- Improve your blood sugar
- Lower your blood pressure
- And lower your cholesterol levels.
In short, ginger can boost your metabolism, help you burn fat and shield your body from diabetes and heart problems.
Experts believe ginger is powerful because of its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
You can get more ginger in your diet by adding it to your favorite dishes or drinking ginger tea. Or you can take it as a supplement. Click here to see a selection from vitacost.com.
Live well,
Natalie Moore
