Very tropical-looking. Buy an organic Rhizome(sort of a root) from the store, break it apart to have at least one node each and plant. Google "growing ginger" and you'll find out more! I had 4 pcs last year that turned into 16 in one year...and it has a much stronger and more tasty flavor when grown fresh (as do most things when you grow them!). Also freezing ginger whole is a great way to preserve it Ginger is also VERY easy to grow...and PRETTY in the garden! Very tropical-looking.

Its pretty amazing. I kind of wanted to try a Ginger bath, because I heard That toxins can actually keep you from losing weight, and after 2 kids I cant lose this last 30 lbs. It just wont happen! But Im breastfeeding and Im really not sure if it would be ok to do while Breastfeeding, so I will have to wait I guess. I cant find anything that says its ok. I heard Of ginger tea and baths.

I love ginger! I have used it as a tea (steep fresh ginger in boiled water for several minutes) and added in lemon, honey and powdered red peppper for a morning wake up tea. Also for tummy upsets and nausea ~ that would be just the ginger and the honey. It is SO good! Thanks for posting on such informative and beneficial topics. Blessings, Camille Oh yes! I love ginger!

My naturopath suggested putting a small piece into my smoothie every morning. It has really helped. She said that anything put into a smoothie digests easier and thus your body is better able to absorb the medicinal properties. The other herb that I have put into my smoothies is tumeric. I swear it has helped with general aches and pains of pregnancy. I love it, too! I have used ginger during my current pregnancy.

My maternal grandmother made a ginger tea that she would give us to help with menstrual cramps but never got the recipe from her. I love the taste of ginger.
