From smoothies to savory dishes, Ginger Root is one of the most amazing ingredients you can add. Ginger boasts a long list of health claims… so proven, some anecdotal. But there’s no denying that this gnarly spicy root can help lay the foundation for true health and wellness.

Ginger is excellent as a spice, or alone as a tea. It’s a delicious addition to a smoothie (a little for flavor, a lot for a spicy kick). We even love to blend the ginger whole for the added fiber benefit.
