The joys of ginger

Do you remember the show "Gilligan's Island? Two of the ladies on that show were Mary Ann and Ginger. Ask any man which one he prefers. A local wellness expert says go with ginger.

Actually Saginaw chiropractor Dr. Dan Kehres may be a little too young for Gilligan's Island. But he knows all about the health benefits of the root known as ginger. Perhaps you've seen it in the produce section of the grocery store. Dr. Dan says chop it up and add it to tea for a soothing drink. Ginger or ginger root is consumed as a delicacy, medicine, or spice. Other notable members of this plant family are turmeric another one of Dr. Dan's favorites.
