ginger tumeric and cinnamon detox infusion

Sharing my miracle drink with you today peeps. A ginger, tumeric and cinnamon detox infusion. It’s benefits ? Well it’s all about the anti-inflammatory properties in each of these ingredients. Whether it’s for digestion issues, bloating or stomach aches – for whatever reason that may be (medications, bacteria, intolerances, over-eating, over-drinking..), I call this a detox drink because it really does the job.

Let me explain why with a few fun facts about the ingredients used:

Ginger:

? Contains Gingerol, a powerful anti-inflammatory & antioxidant
? Reduces nausea caused by chemotherapy or medications, or morning sickness for pregnant women
? Treats chronic indigestion (dyspepsia) because it speeds up the emptying of the stomach
? Can reduce menstrual pain

Tumeric:

? With curcumin as it’s active main ingredient, it has powerful anti-inflammatory & antioxidant effects
? Supports the immune system in its ability to fight infection

Cinnamon:

? Cinnamon is loaded with powerful antioxidants, such as polyphenols
? Has powerful anti-inflammatory properties
? Cinnamaldehyde, one of the main active components of cinnamon, may help fight various kinds of infection.

So you can be sure that with these three spices, you are putting highly anti-inflammatory and antioxidant nutrients in your stomach that can only help cleanse your body. Our stomachs are often the source of a lot of our pains and aches and we sometimes forget to take care of it.
I like to make this drink when I need special attention to my stomach or intestines, or just sometimes as a detox cure, let’s say once a month to give my stomach a break.

It’s got spice and it’s got kick so be warned, but it’s definitely worth adding to your monthly body care routines. I wouldn’t drink more than a cup at a time, and space the ingestion of a new cup to 2-3 days later if you feel you need more, as it is powerful.

A lemon slice can be added or even some fresh lemon juice in the infusion if you please. Lemon is also great for the digestion system.
