The Bloat

Do you sometimes feel bloated? The summer heat is on and you tend to drink too much water to keep you refreshed all day, then you end up feeling bloated. Say goodbly to the bloat, a ginger-infused bath is what you need. It quickly deflates areas prone to puffiness. Ginger has antioxidants called gingerols and shagoals, these, infused in warm water enter the fatty layer under the skin and flush the fat-trapping toxins. Ginger also contains anti-inflammatory compounds that relieve achy muscles.

For your bath, pour 1 cup of grated fresh ginger into the foot of an old clean panty hose [thin sock and cheese cloth may be used also] Tie it and drop into a tub of warm or lukewarm water, infuse the ginger for 5 minutes then soak for 20 minutes.
