Why Ginger Tea is a Gut Health MVP
Ginger isn’t just spicy—it’s powerful. It stimulates digestion, helps your food move through the GI tract, and reduces gas, nausea, and bloating. It also has antimicrobial properties that help balance the gut microbiome. Add in lemon for vitamin C, ACV for enzyme support, and honey for soothing your throat, and you've got an all-in-one elixir.
Optional Add-Ins & Benefits
- Turmeric: Adds anti-inflammatory power
- Mint: Soothes the stomach and cools the spice
- Lemon rind: Extra citrus oils to stimulate digestion
- Cayenne: For those who like it extra bold—it can boost metabolism
