Warming Ginger

Posted by recipes On October - 16 - 2008

The combination of pineapple, mango and ginger in this smoothie gives it an Asian twist. If you are in a cold climate then don’t let this stop you from drinking green smoothies. Ginger is warming on a cold day and also helpful during colds and flus to help you sweat and promote detoxification. Ginger also eliminates intestinal gas, relaxes and soothes the intestinal tract and is anti-inflammatory. In herbal remedies, ginger is used to alleviate nausea, dizziness and vomiting. To benefit from ginger you only need to use a little, as the active substances in ginger are so concentrated.

Pineapple is an excellent source of manganese, which is an important mineral in energy production. Pineapple is often recommended to promote good digestion.

  1. ½ head romaine lettuce
  2. 1 cup pineapple
  3. 1 large mango
  4. 1-inch fresh ginger

Blend the pineapple, mango, ginger and water for 30 seconds. Add the romaine lettuce and blend until smooth.
