Ginger: So Many Benefits

What if I told you that there is something that can ease occasional indigestion, help with occasional motion sickness, support digestion, and provide yummy flavor to recipes?!

Well, you get all of that and more in Ginger essential oil.

A lot of people turn to DigestZen for digestion support. What happens if you run out of DigestZen or just don't have it? Ginger. It is a great substitute for DigestZen.

Or have you ever dealt with nausea during pregnancy and had your doctor or someone else suggest you drink ginger ale or ginger tea? If you Google how to alieve pregnancy nausea some form of ginger will be all over the results!

So why not use a form of ginger that is tested and pure? If you reach for one of those ginger drinks you are likely getting other things with it. Possibly things you don't want to be putting in your body.

This is why I love doTERRA Ginger so much. They source responsibly, they test for purity, they do not add anything else to their Ginger. They are dedicated to quality and purity.

Just how great is Ginger? Well, it is also found in Cheer, DigestZen, MetaPWR, the Brightening Gel, Deep Blue Polyphenol Complex, TerraZyme, DigestTab, Alpha CRS+, Microplex VMz, and xEO Mega. Did you catch all of those? Metabolic support, daily vitamins and supplements, digestion powerhouses, supplements for healthy joints. Ginger is in ALL OF THOSE! That should give you an idea of why this oil is so great.

So read on to learn some of the great uses of this oil!
