How ginger can help you banish your belly fat

Many people tend to boil ginger root to make tea when they’re feeling under the weather. This is because it has many medicinal properties, including being an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.

However, ginger also contains compounds called gingerols and shogaols. They help stimulate the body to speed digested food through the colon, help keep your fuller for longer, helping cells recover and stabilise your blood sugar – all important factors while trying to lose weight.

According to a study published in Journal of The Science of Food and Agriculture, gingerol was found to help digest food faster in our body and it also enhances the metabolic rate.

“Due to gingerol, the sugar levels in the body are regulated, and glucose is also synthesised properly. That’s why it is also great for people who are dealing with diabetes”, explains Dr Chopra.

“When it comes to weight loss, consuming antioxidants is important, as it helps to control the free radicals that damage cells in your body, which are responsible for digestion and other important metabolic functions.

“And plus, its anti-inflammatory properties keep indigestion, bloating, and other gastrointestinal problems at bay.”
