Ginger Green Tea
If you have read my recent posts, you will know that this year I have started drinking green tea, after acknowledging its many health benefits; including being a good cancer supplement. I am also taking tumeric to flavour my food, very good cancer supplement, and read that you need to take it with black pepper or ginger. I add black pepper.
My wife saw ginger green tea while out shopping and thought I could try it. To my surprise, the greatest benefit has been to my breathing. The first time I took it I went to the gym shortly afterwards and I noticed my breathing was better while working out. Being born I sceptic, I have continued using it before training and my breathing has been greatly improved.
Since being on chemo for 18 months, my breathing has not been the same. Now I can breath fully in and out. I can hold my breath for 25 seconds, which I estimate to be twice as long as before taking ginger green tea. While still less than before treatment, I have a running background, it is a significant improvement.
So I'd be interested to hear whether someone else has tried it. One extra tip, a squeeze of lemon adds to the absorption of any minerals in green tea in general :). Ginger green tea does a strong flavour. Happy drinking!
