Good morning! With spring so far away you ask why are we concerned about our soil now? Now is a perfect time to get your soil ready to rest until spring. Can you imagine all of the healthy things going on under the snow packed ground???

To end our topic on choosing alternative methods and getting away from using pesticides, insecticides and other chemicals, we want to cover using castings and or tea for pests such as whiteflies, aphids, Japanese beetles, and others. In ridding disease, assistance in drought times, unhealthy soil and the things that stop you from having a healthy crop and healthy soil.

Did you know that the whitefly alone are especially dangerous to plant life? They carry many diseases and actually leave behind a sooty mold that can shut down photosynthesis and ultimately kill the plant. According to Tampa Bay Times, this little pest has alone threatens to devestate states such as Florida's $500 million dollar tomato crop.

We look forward to finishing up our topic with this section with you! Have a beautiful weekend and always remember to have a groovy day!

Good morning! As we stated yesterday, ginger helps with many forms of nausea and vomiting. A note we forgot to mention yesterday, if you're wanting to use ginger for nausea in your pregnancy, *** please let your doctor or midwife know.***

Ginger is known to play a role in weight loss. Research studies have shown it can significantly reduce body weight, the waist-hip ratio, and the hip ratio in people with overweight or obesity. Research also shows in women with obesity helped reduce body mass index (BMI) and blood insulin levels. Ginger's ability to influence weight loss may be related to its potential to help increase the number of calories burned or reduced inflammation.

Since we mentioned lowering blood sugars, ginger can also drastically lower these levels and improve heart disease risk factors.

Ginger has powerful anti-diabetic properties. It's been shown to reduce risk factors in people with type 2 diabetes.

Ginger can help treat chronic indigestion as it appears to speed up emptying of the stomach, which can be beneficial for those of us who suffer from indigestion and related stomach discomfort.

I think we will stop here for now. Thanks for coming along with us! Remember to have a groovy day!

Good morning!! Whenever we talk about ginger, my mind never forgets Maryann...and if you're old enough to know about this... you will forever do the same. You're welcome!

Ginger (root) is most commonly known as a medicinal herb for easing nausea and motion sickness. There is research that suggests that ginger may relieve the nausea caused by pregnancy and chemotherapy. There is currently research being conducted in the areas of surgery and as an anticancer agent. It's wide range of actions may be due in part to its strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

Ginger is a flowering plant that actually originated in Southeast Asia. It's among the healthiest (and most delicious) spices on the planet.

The rhizome (underground part of the stem) is the part commonly used as a spice.

Ginger can be used fresh, dried, powdered, or as an oil or juice. It's also sometimes added to processed foods and cosmetics.

This medicinal herb has a very long history of use in various forms of traditional and alternative medicine. It contains gingerol, which has powerful medicinal purposes. Gingerol has powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

We will stop here for now. Thanks for being here and remember to have a groovy day!
