Here's an interesting article about how ginger reduces inflammation. That is good news for us since many of the issues of aging center around inflammation (pain, acid reflux, more pain, skin rashes, etc.).
I recommend making yourself ginger tea w/ just a very thin slice of ginger (use a tool like a potato peeler) in hot/warm water. It is so wonderful to help manage digestion.
