Grow Youthful: How to Slow Your Aging and Enjoy Extraordinary Health

Ailment: Flatulence

Remedy: Ginger tea


Take a piece of fresh ginger, the size of your thumbnail, or bigger if you like your tea strong. Crush it, put it in a mug and fill with hot or boiling water. Leave it to steep for 5 minutes.

Fresh ginger is available at most grocers and Asian stores. Dried ginger powder has different properties and is not as effective. Similarly, ginger tea bags are not very effective.

YES
Mix the juice of half a lemon or lime in a cup of body-temperature water. Drink it slowly after meals. Optionally, add 1 teaspoon of grated ginger or half teaspoon of ginger powder. Other options are a pinch of asafoetida powder, and a pinch of rock salt. This drink is a wonderful home remedy for flatulence. It helps within minutes, and also gives a permanent soothing cure.
