Lastly, in terms of chronic ailments such as heart disease and cancer, ginger may provide cardiovascular and cancer protection to keep you healthy.
Our favorite way to consume ginger is the Ginger People's Ginger Spread. This fabulous treat is made from young stem ginger that is steeped in cane sugar syrup and ground to a fine paste. Layer Ginger Spread onto thin slices of pear and aged Gouda, Manchego or Cheddar cheese for an impressive, yet simple appetizer. Swirl Ginger Spread through yogurt, cream cheese or whipped cream. Spread over toast, crumpets or scones. Spoon into a warm bowl of oatmeal, add to a fruit smoothie or lace through a fresh fruit salad.
