The Weather Outside Is Frightful...

 ​It's that time of the year again, the temperature is  dropping and we are awaiting the first real snow fall. Even  though I was born right here in Toronto I can't stand  the cold. I am trying not to complain as much this year.  Instead I have been popping my vitamin D and finding  ways to cope with the weather. 
 To help with warding off the cold I like to gravitate  towards warm drinks and my favourite is a very simple  homemade ginger tea. Not only is it delicious it also has  many great health benefits. 

• Helps to alleviate stomach pain
• Improve circulation 
• Contains cancer fighting properties
• Helps with weight loss
• Relieves menstrual pain
• Helps with digestion of food
• Helps with stress relief 

Ayurveda refers to ginger as a universal medicine and its use can be found in ancient Chinese medicine. So, the next time you are looking for something to fend off the cold try a cup of ginger tea. Why not warm and nourish your body at the same time.
