NMFIT Recipe Series: Jamaican Ginger Beverage

Ginger! There are so many benefits and I never really truly embraced the perks of this root until recent years.  After having thyroid surgery, I had developed a polyp and my voice was going in and out.  This was obviously a problem as a fitness instructor and TV expert. I decided to turn to more holistic ways of treating this problem and ginger paired with other practices was a life savior. 

Some benefits of ginger include:

  • Powerful nutrients that are beneficial for the mind and body.

  • Contains powerful medicinal compounds like Gingerol.

  • Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

  • Excellent for nausea or morning sickness.

  • Ginger can reduce muscle pain and soreness.

Another bonus is that the consumption of ginger water can help with maintaining a healthy weight.

I have never classified myself as a cook, my mother has been a huge influence in how I have adopted a healthy cooking style over the years especially when I was starting my fitness journey over 15 years ago.   

Below is a recipe for her ginger beverage that is great for keeping in the fridge all week long!
