- 5 Benefits of Ginger | Digestion-Boosting Tea Recipe: Thomas DeLauer
I originally created this video for the BeFit channel, but you can find this and many other vids at www.ThomasDeLau...
In this video I'm going to give you 5 benefits of ginger. Why I personally think that ginger is one of the best things that you can eat. At the end of this video, if you stick with me, I'm going to show a tea that you can make with ginger, but also with some simple ingredients that your probably got hanging around the house or in the fridge. Let's dive right in.
Starting with number 5. The number 5 reason that I think ginger is one of the best things that you can consume is because it improves your blood circulation. Those of you that have watched my videos, you know how big I am on circulation. You know how big I am on nutrient absorption. When your blood is circulating well, you're absorbing more nutrients. You see, ginger has something called gingerall. Those gingeralls create an increase in your body temperature, so they increase your core body temperature.
The number 4 reason is it's an awesome pain reliever. You see, those same gingeralls that make it so that you have better circulation, also reduce inflammation and reduce pain. The way they do that is they block something called the cyclooxygenase enzyme 2 or COX enzyme 2. What that COX-2 enzyme is, is it's something that creates that sensation of pain as a result from inflammation. If you've ever bumped your knee, or if you've ever bumped your elbow or your shoulder, and you immediately get that redness and that swelling, that's inflammation, but the pain that's associated with it is caused by that COX-2 enzyme. Now, ginger blocks that. It directly reduces pain associated with inflammation. As an added bonus, it also blocks what are called prostaglandins from creating headaches. Prostaglandins are pro-inflammatory enzymes that create pain as well, but there are specific ones that cause headaches. Ginger blocks that.
The number 3 reason is it relaxes muscles. It prevents cramping. It doesn't just prevent cramping after sports or after activity. It can also reduce menstrual cramping and menstrual bleeding. In a study by the Center for Nursing Care Research in Iran, it was found that giving ginger to women that were having heavy menstrual cramping and even heavy menstrual bleeding dramatically reduced the amount of cramping and pain but also the amount of blood that was associated with the menstrual cycle.
The number 2 reason that ginger is absolutely awesome is it prevents nausea. You have a little bit of ginger before you go on a car ride, or if you're prone to getting motion sick, then you can take some ginger right before you go, and it's going to help you. It stimulates gastric juices so it helps your body digest. If you ever got food sitting in your stomach that's making your feel nauseous, a little bit of ginger can help stimulate the hydrochloric acid, get the process going so that you start assimilating your nutrients and moving along through the digestive process.
Lastly, the number 1 reason why ginger is awesome is it keeps you from getting sick. This has been proven time and time again that ginger supports your immune system. Ginger has such a strong anti-septic, anti-microbial, and antibiotic property to it that it can actually stop an infection in its tracks. More importantly, it can prevent an infection from occurring in the first place. Now, this could mean a respiratory infection, sinus infection, or it could just mean simply the common cold and flu. If you're regular with when you consume your ginger, you can actually boost your body's immune system to keep that from happening in the first place.

I love ginger tea but I wait till it cools a bit to add the lemon/lime and honey of any. Just to preserves as much of the vitamin C and probiotics in the honey/
My pharmacist studied in Taiwan where their first year only covers herbs. She eats and highly recommended a slice of ginger every day which I've done since.
Eastern and western medicine is a good mix.
I use green tea and ginger with honey
I love ginger, and have ginger tea most mornings on empty stomach, I've never looked or felt better.
Are u in favour of ginger or against ???🙄
@@nitusharma2106 😂😂
Good stuff. I make a gallon of this per week and store it in the fridge. I drink 5 oz before every meal and it has really helped me. I eat a lot of cruciferous vegetables and they give me a decent amount of gas. With the ginger tea I have cut that problem by a huge factor.
Frog Eater with it staying in the fridge all week will in retain all the benefits necessary?
Why eat foods that give you a lot of cause to begin with.
@@tanishanightingale because they are healthy
Thomas I love how you explain ginger uses I have tried it all its really good..digestion menstrual cycles are better if taken 3 days before it..it works magic..awww you look great! Its a compliment you take care of ur body..no disrespect ok
I almost bought ginger on my last grocery haul, but didn't know what I would do with it. This brew sounds tasty, and power packed. Yum! 😚
I have non-alcoholic fatty liver and this really helps along with Vitamin E, fish oil, probiotics (yakult) and moringa capsules.
I've got alcoholic fatty liver, and it better help me.
I add ginger to my smoothies, and drink lemon and ginger tea.
Love ginger tea ❤️. Drinking 2 to 3 big 16 oz cups a day. Good stuff 👍
i think ginger and honey in warm water are helping me in my ulcerative colitis . i hope this would continue as i have been suffering from uc for about 15 years and nothing has helped me to cure that.
Same here.
I think green cabbage juice or smoothies help it, too.
1 part Cold pressed ginger with lime juice either with 1 or 2 parts warm water or tea (honey is optional) knock the cold right out
I'm sick I made ginger with green tea and bit of honey, I chewed the slice of ginger and geez it stings and gagged but I kinda liked it
Thomas thank you so very much for sharing that information! I’m a huge fan of your content here in Fort Lauderdale, Fl.
I like how it says “research Bomb” the second you mentioned Iran
I lost my craving on sugar and carbs and I drink in the morning.
Glad I found you! Would you please do a video on herbs and spices on keto? I love garlic and other things but I don't use them because of how many carbs are in them. Does it really make a difference? Should I worry about counting them?
I make raw ginger juice-lemon juice-honey in cold water. It taste better and you don't lose any vitamin, minerals or pro/prebiotics.
Wanna spice it up, add chi spices, and fresh tumeric, and make a version of Hong Kong Milk tea by steeping black Ceylon tea leaves, or Green if u prefer toward end of brew process. So after you add fresh grated frozen tumeric to ginger, then add cinnamon bark, white/ green cardamon, few allspice, and black pepper pimentos, cloves, and star anise, ect. Basically you are combining an India chi tea recipe with the ginger lemon and tumeric added. Then to turn it into a black Hong Kong milk tea, add the black tea to steep and turn off burner. Then pour 70% tea mixture to 20/30% milk ratio. For milks, can use almond, hemp, or the traditional sweetened condensed, mixed with evaporated. I use hemp and blue agave to sweeten, and half n half to give it a little more milk flavor. Sometimes I add fresh poppy for a little nutty flavor. So many ways one can spice up ginger tea as if it's not spicy enough! Ginger is awesome, but this combo is even sweeter!
Im about to pick up ginger and add to my morning blend 😃🤙🏻
I di ginger and you're saying all the things I"m so psyched to find you, Mr DeLauer, sir.
you're a great example for everything I stand for sir
thank you
Thomas, thank you for this video. I find of of your videos very informative.
This is a really great video; very informative! Thank you.
I suffer from gout I've been having ginger celery and lime juice in a drink what do you think
Love all the informations you give to your followers. One question, what do you think about organic ginger powder? Thank you :)
Thank you ❤ I heard it’s not good to heat up
It’s worth noting the denaturing process that happens with several foods, the vit C is sensitive to heat and I’m sure that when honey is hot it converts into a toxic sweetener nevertheless that tea sounds good and will add stevia or some honey and lemon after the boiling process
Thanks for the updates. Big help
Thank you Thomas! I wonder, would adding ginger slices to green tea (with no honey) break a fast? I drink a mug of tea during my fasting.
Also waiting for this answer.
The answer is no
dude just eat it raw it hard at first but after it gets easy i eat ginger everyday :D
enjoy your explanations very much,
Great information. thank you for sharing
I make 1 litre of rooibos, lemon, ginger, peppermint, chamomile and dandelion tea everyday and have it with my food.
Does cooking ginger destroy its nutrients?
Great video. how long should I let the ginger boil for?
It helps with inflammation? That explains why it helps me so much with my depression
Awesome video. Thanks Thomas
Thanks for the tip 👍🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Absolutely truth..Thomas
Is it okay to just chew it up and eat it or do I have to make a tea
Tnx so much for the information...❤️❤️❤️
Thomas what about pre-packaged ginger tee? Would that be an okay substitute?
No
My papi prevented heart attacks with Ginger
Very good!!!! We didnt put honey in ours because I dont like the taste of honey it turns my stomache but the ginger and a tad bit of lemon was yummy & I grate my ginger root first then add it to my cup and strain it into another cup
Hi Thomas. I was wondering if you can do a video about HCG drops. My sister is currently taking the drops to lose weight. She is losing a lot of weight and would like me to try it but I refuse because I feel that is unhealthy. She is on a strict calorie diet and I think she's just putting her body into starvation. And also I would like to know how it affects hormones since I have hypothyroidism. Thank you, it would be of much help and informative.
Add tumeric , fresh mint and a touch cayenne pepper .
Perfection
@Abed Sarsur I was gonna say that!
Don't do that
U made my day that was super effective ✌️
Does the heat destroy vitamin C?
Yes.
I say commercial coffee and alcohol.
Destroying vitamin C in one product is not necessarily an issue as you get so much of it from other sources. Having writtn that I would not put the lemon into the boiling water.
Yeah you should not boil lemon juice and it also destroys the vitamin c. Add it at the end.
Same for the hunney. Never in a liquid above 30 degree.
I suggest to put the lemon juice after because the vitamin C can't resist the high temperature
What is something natural someone can use for pain or inflammation that does not thin the blood. For someone who has a problem with blood clotting
Love ginger . Awesome to know .
4:30 start recipe
Instead of slices if you shred the ginger youll get the juices in the water immediately
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS , SO MUCH XXX
Thanks so much
Why would you want to add honey and lemon to a boiling water? Would destroy all the vitamins.
Christopher Ralte
And temperature above 45 degrees Celsius destroys the enzymes in honey.
what the fuck
That's the point... They don't really want you to know how to stay healthy... It's just an illusion.
after boiling most of the vitamin C will stay in the water instead of in the lemon. If you're drinking the tea you still get the vitamin c... and don’t boil it for a hour . 10 mins won’t do much
if you guys are so fussy you better not use a metal utensil to get the honey like when he uses the metal knife
I love it ginger i make tea everyday
Great
Is it good to cut the ginger into very small portions and straight drink it? Like what people do with garlic as well.
I recently discovered ginger water... 3 cups water, 2 inches ginger (grated tiny), juice of half lemon (to taste), @ 1 tbsp honey (to taste).
Great stuff.
Boiling water kills the vitamin C though right?
I love your channel oh my goodness
Will adding ginger to black tea break your fast?
If you take it without creamer or sugar no. But if you put creamer or sugar then yes.
thanks
It's not a good idea to put the honey into boiling water. The temperature of the water shoudn't be higher than 60°C, otherwise you lose the positive effect of honey.
I am having surgery in a couple weeks. I want to try to tough it out... Would heavy amounts of ginger be enough to replace the pain killers and anti-inflammatory pills they give me?
I wouldn't know but it won't hurt to over consume a bit to be safe.
Can you use powder ginger and already made lemon juice instead?
Will the pure ginger tea break your fast sir?
Love your videos also ashwaghandha is great for inflamation if you can also give your view on that
Gary Ruvelli Ashwagandha is a nightshade and it triggers inflammation actually
Will ginger and lemon tea (no sugar or honey) break a fast?
Betttinha_Garoa no but dont use more than a tablespoon of lemon extract
Would both Fresh Ginger and Powdered Ginger provide the same benefits?
Fresh ginger root is more potent. You would need to use quite a bit of the powdered form to get the same benefit, i have found.
I am skinny, but digestion is not good, should I drink it ?
Can I drink ginger lemon tea while fasting?
How many times a day should I drink ginger??
thanks!
Can you use ground ginger in place of fresh ginger?
Jordan Evans yes
Been drinking this whenever I got sick since I was a child.
Doesn't the heat kill the vitamin c from the lemon though?
Is it OK to have ginger tea while fasting
Yes just skip the honey
Aren't you handsome. I hv a painful swelling on both sides of my belly. Today I had a green juice with ginger n it really helped. I also get loads of headaches.
But boiling water destroys vit C right?
Complete oxidation of vitamin C is in about 180 celsius degrees. It's much higher then boiling water (100 celsius degrees). Short boiling will not destroy all vitamin C. Might destroy 20-30%.
PS. Although boiling would "wash away" vitamin C from the food, because that vitamin is water soluble. So it's best to prepare rich vitamin C food in microwave oven. Or just delicate frying.
This could use an update?
Can you talk about "monk fruit" sweetener. Thanks. Love your videos.
Why complicate things with all these hippie foods? just use good old raw honey...
@@ronin7590 because keto
@@ronin7590 What khamakazy said. Monk fruit does not trigger an insulin response. Great for diabetics, keto diet, intermittent fasting. A bit ignorant to think there is no use for it.
Is consuming ginger-lemon tea post workout going to affect the muscle building? The reason I ask is since it lowers inflammation which is required for optimal growth. Im unsire whether acute or chronic. Second thing, the C and E vitamins in small amounts whether they also prevent that insulin resistence u need to have post workout?
Hey man, do you drink this yourself everyday?
I drink a turmeric ginger shot EVERY MORNING BEFORE BREAKFAST
can I use ginger in keosis diet?
Help me I have gases for many years
Will ginger and tumeric break a fast? I’m tryna figure out when I’m guna drink this during the day.
ANIMUS I don’t think so, he has another video where he shows what to drink while on fast, he mix Apple cider vinegar and ginger along with some spices.. just exclude the honey 🍯
So do you drink ginger tea every day in order for it to work for you ?
A
Will ginger help my knee pain
good information but there are better ways to make ginger beer. it takes time, you have to let it ferment.
Does ginger tea break intermittent fasting???
Sikandar Nor no
Will having unsweetened ginger tea break my fast?
anything that isn't water breaks your fast
Can you drink this during intermittent fasting?
it ll break your fast
If you use replace the honey with stevia, yesss!
Of course u can. Its intermitten fasting not starving yourself
I cringed when he set the knife down. There was still a load of honey on there. The right way to do it is to hold the knife in the hot water and let it slide the honey off with heat. No waste!
Ginger? What about Maryann?
Should we skip honey if we are in keto?
ar_ comet yes that would be good
so do we drink this everyday?
you can drink twice a day it's no side effects
ok thanx
Is grounded ginger worse than the root itself?
The fresh root is definitely more potent than the ground ginger you find in containers. I know this from my own experience. I used it to treat acid reflux.
