III. Ginger Detox Bath
Ginger is a root that possesses loads of healthy properties when you eat it, but it can also be used in other ways to help the body, like soaking in a ginger bath.
You can either grate fresh ginger into your bath or sprinkle in some ginger powder. The author of the recipe says that it’s a way to get the body to sweat a lot more and get even extra amounts of toxins out, much like taking a sauna or sitting in a steam room.
They say it leads to feelings of increased energy, feeling cleaner, and warding off symptoms of an oncoming cold.
Ginger detox recipe:
1/2 cup of freshly grated ginger or a rounded teaspoon of ginger powder
Tips:
- Add grated ginger or ginger powder to hot or warm water.
- Soak for 15-20 minutes.
- Make sure to drink plenty of water after your ginger bath.
- Please remember that the ginger bath will make you sweat profusely for at least an hour afterward, so wear sweat clothes or a bathrobe. If you have sensitive skin or are allergy-prone, test ginger on your skin for
irritation before dipping into the bath.
Important Considerations Before Bath Detoxing:
- Drink plenty of water before and after, as the bath may dehydrate you.
- As you step out of the bath, be careful and move slowly. Detoxing will likely make you feel weak and/or lightheaded.
- Avoid taking hot baths, particularly salt baths, if you are pregnant, have heart trouble, high blood pressure, or are diabetic. If you’re not sure, talk to your doctor first.
