At My Rainbow-Dreams, we love ginger!
Ginger root is a truly incredible spice and is worthy of the term ‘superfood’. It has over 60 trace minerals, over 30 amino acids and over 500 enzymes. These work as a tonic for the muscles and organs, giving them the message they can let go and relax. We can so easily get into a hyperactive state in our fast-paced world and ginger is the ultimate tool to give ourselves relief from tension. It has a long history of use to calm an upset stomach and aid digestion for this reason. It can also soothe a tight throat, reduce menstrual pain and ease muscle pain from intense exercise.
Ginger is antibacterial, antiviral and antiparasitic, giving tremendous support to the immune system. It contains a natural oil called gingerol which gives it its powerful medicinal qualities.
To top it all ginger has a rich and spicy flavour. Our cooks often use it in curries and dhals. Fresh ginger is a ‘secret’ ingredient of our trademark Beetroot Salad, which goes in all our Rainbow Wraps and Gourmet Salad Bowls, and we juice it fresh in our famous Detox Juice. Feel free to request Ginger or Extra Ginger any time you order our fresh juices – we’ll happily add it for no extra cost.
Also delicious is our Raw Ginger Slice – packed with raw and ground ginger. Yum!
