Remedies In the Kitchen

 There are so many spices/herbs in the kitchen that can improve a persons health. I am not in the medical field of work. The information that I post here is from doing my own personal research.

 Cinnamon for example is a very good spice. It is one of the many antioxidants. Anti oxidants get the germs that we don't need out of our bodies. Most people use cinnamon in yams, sweet potato pies, tea or coffee for flavor. Cinnamon can also be used to lower a person's blood pressure or A1C level if you are a diabetic. We have to be careful with the cinnamon because if you take too much it can lower the level too much. It is best to just consume 1 teaspoon then see how you feel. When taking the teaspoon don't over fill it. I personal use cinnamon sticks in my smoothie drinks. I use the powder in my yams and coffee. Cinnamon is also good as a fat burner to speed up you metabolism. Consuming way too cinnamon can give a person diarrhea. 

I have seen cinnamon in the pill form in pharmacy stores. I have never used or bought it. With anything new small doses is best.

I used to add sugar to it when I first started making it. However now I just make a pitcher unsweetened sometimes adding a fresh lemon to the pot when boiling. I also pair It with regular tea bags and boil them toget...

Yes, please to ginger

Ginger grows out the ground as a root. It is related to cardamon and tumeric. The root  has so many uses. It is also an antioxidant. The skin on it is very thin. You can actually get a spoon and scrap the skin off. You can use a knife but that will remove too much of the actual ginger itself. Once you have peeled the ginger it is ready to be used. Ginger is very stringy. Meaning it has a lot of strings in it if you trying grating it up. There are numerous uses for ginger. It can be boiled as a tea, it can be used for hair growth, it can be used as a seasoning on meats and vegetables, it can be used in desserts. Also it is great in drinks and smoothies. At the same time it can be drunk if you have indigestion or heart burn instead of buying over the counter medicine.  I have seen and tasted ginger candy. I am not a fan of the candy. It is good if a person is suffering from nausea or upset stomach. The root can boost a persons immune system. It is great if you feel a cold/flu...
