Tradition, scientific studies, and Hardy\u2019s experience have shown that ginger can be helpful for everything from digestive upset like nausea to joint and muscle issues, and even sore feet. Not to mention, the herb enhances circulation and supports cardiovascular health. \u201cIt\u2019s a good herb for self-care,\u201d says Hardy. \u201cIt has a very good safety record, is easily available, and is inexpensive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>From adding it to soups and stir-fries to juicing it with fruits and veggies, there are plenty of ways to eat and drink ginger. Here are Hardy\u2019s recommendations for even more concentrated benefits.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>1. Brew <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/herbal-teas\/N-cp99me\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ginger Tea<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A good ginger tea starts with really fresh ginger root. \u201cTake a nice, plump root that has a thin skin, is unmarked, and smells fresh when you break a little piece off,\u201d Hardy says. \u201cThe root should be a nice, light, bright yellow, and should have the spicy smell you\u2019re used to, as well as a slight citrusy after-smell.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how to brew your mug:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Add one to two teaspoons of freshly grated root to a cup of hot water<\/li>\n<li>Steep for 10 minutes<\/li>\n<li>Strain, add a little <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/honey\/N-cp99kw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">honey<\/a>, and start sipping<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>For better digestion, drink ginger tea after a meal. For everything else, sip any time! If you\u2019re dealing with nausea, especially morning sickness-related nausea, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/herbs-f-n\/N-cp99ly\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ginger root supplement<\/a> may be better tolerated (we&#8217;ll talk about those soon). In a pinch, try bagged ginger tea, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/yogi-tea-ginger-tea-16-bag\/yt-1011\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yogi Tea Ginger Tea<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2. Make A Ginger Compress<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Studies have shown that the combination of ginger and heat has a synergistic effect that helps soothe joint and muscle pain, stomach discomfort, and bloating.<\/p>\n<p>A hot ginger compress can be applied a few times a day. Here\u2019s what Hardy recommends:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Follow the tea-brewing directions (minus the honey), but use two to three times as much ginger root<\/li>\n<li>Soak a small, 100 percent-cotton cloth in the liquid and apply it to the desired area<\/li>\n<li>Wrap the compress in plastic wrap and leave it in place until it starts to cool down<\/li>\n<li>The ginger liquid can be reheated and reused for later compresses<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>To relieve sore feet, soak them in a bucket filled with an extra-strong version of the brew.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. Use Ginger <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/aromatherapy\/N-cp99xg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aromatherapy<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As an alternative to the compress, Hardy recommends diluting two to three drops of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/aromatherapy\/N-cp99xg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ginger essential oil<\/a> (like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/essential-oil-fresh-ginger-0-5-fl-oz-oil\/if-0048\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aura Cacia&#8217;s Fresh Ginger Essential Oil<\/a>) in a palm-sized amount of organic olive oil or another neutral oil.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/essential-oils-weight-loss\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sniff These Scents To Curb Cravings, Lift Your Mood, And Even De-Bloat<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rub the oil mixture on the affected areas, such as joints, muscles, or, in the case of indigestion or menstrual cramps, across your midsection.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4. Take A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/c\/herbs-f-n\/N-cp99ly\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ginger Supplement<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For a more concentrated therapeutic option, turn to a ginger supplement. Hardy recommends capsules of dried ginger root, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/ginger-root-550-mg-300-capsules\/vs-2066\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Vitamin Shoppe brand Ginger Root<\/a>.<\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [rr-products] does not match the conditions -->\n<p>For nausea related to pregnancy, take one gram per day. For non-pregnancy-related nausea, doses may vary from one to five grams per day. To soothe muscles or joints, try two to three grams per day. To avoid stomach upset, ginger supplements are best taken with food.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>5. Eat Ginger<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Although your standard Western diet likely doesn\u2019t contain enough ginger to deliver therapeutic benefits, fresh ginger in food does impact health!<\/p>\n<p>One Iranian study published in the journal <em>Nutrition<\/em>, for example, linked daily ginger consumption with better overall health long-term.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Diggin\u2019 What\u2019s Good?
