Fresh ginger has the taste “rasa” of pungent and it is heating in nature with a sweet after taste. The consumption of ginger stimulates the digestive fire “Agni” and our appetites, and improves absorption and assimilation of essential nutrients in the body while scrapping away-undigested food in our system, called “Ama”. Being a powerful anti-inflammatory it reduces joint pain and aching muscles and also keeping the sinuses clear, relieves nausea, gas and stomach cramps.
