FAQ
What is a ginger shot good for?
Ginger shot benefits range from providing powerful wellness support to soothing everyday digestive distress. A ginger shot could help to soothe an upset stomach, counter occasional bouts of everyday nausea, and support balanced metabolism from day to day.
Can you drink ginger shots everyday?
A daily ginger shot is safe for most (check with your doctor first if you have any health issues or are on medication). I like to add these shots as just one of several morning juice recipes in my wellness routine.
How to make ginger shots with ginger?
Grate and extract the ginger juice manually. Then mix it with lemon juice. Blend in a small grinder with lemon juice and then filter it. Using a slow juicer is good if you are making at least 4 to 5 shots.
How many ginger shots a week?
For maximum benefit, ginger shots are best taken every day on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. However, you need to limit your quantities and only take it once a day since too much can cause heartburn and acidity.
