Ancient Greek sailors chewed ginger to prevent seasickness. That same root is now being studied for sleep apnea relief. The connection? Ginger reduces inflammation in the airway. So from rocking boats to rocking you to sleep—ginger is the ultimate globetrotter of wellness.
So next time you see that gnarly root in your produce drawer, don’t just think “curry.” Think “cozy.” Think “zzzz.” Give it a try. Worst case, you make a really delicious tea. Best case, you wake up feeling like a very well-rested ginger ninja. Sweet dreams, spice friend.
