Uses of fresh Ginger to the body

I've always loved the flavor of ginger. Spicy and pungent, it is delicious in tea form and almost completely cuts the bitterness of vegetables in fresh juices and smoothies (adding ginger is basically the only way I can stomach beets in my juices). And while I've always known it's frequently used to aid digestion, I will humbly admit I had no idea the spice boasts such a sprawling list of medicinal benefits. The experts say ginger root is a stellar anti-inflammatory, improves heart health, eases nausea and motion sickness, helps expel free radicals from the body, and is even linked with lowering cholesterol. If this spicy root has this much power, I just had to test it out. I decided to consume fresh ginger every day for seven days. While there are many ways to consume it, I opted to head straight to my juicer each morning for a ginger and lemon shot and continued my ritual with a cup of homemade ginger tea at night. Whipping up the tea is easy; you simply pour a cup of boiling water over a hunk of raw ginger and let it sit for a few minutes. I almost immediately noticed its digestive powers. I'll be totally candid here: when it comes to bathroom habits, I've never been regular. Switching to a healthier diet certainly helped (healthier meaning I will never give up cheese), but even my favorite cruciferous vegetables can be triggers for cases of all-day bloating. The effect of fresh ginger was quick — by the third day, I was going to the bathroom at the same time every morning like clockwork. I also noticed a significant reduction in after-dinner bloating when finishing my meal (broccoli and all!) with a cup of ginger tea. It eased my muscle pain post-workout. I'm a huge advocate of the benefits of weight training for women, and I tend to push myself pretty hard in the gym. By midweek, I noticed that my onset soreness, while still present, felt noticeably milder than usual. I'm a firm believer in utilizing all-natural remedies in lieu of medication whenever possible. I use peppermint oil for headaches and drink raw honey when I have a sore throat. But for my workouts, I typically take two anti-inflammatory pills each morning to help ease the pain, and I can totally get behind the idea of drinking ginger instead. I craved my evening tea. Even for someone who loves the flavor, my morning shot was a tad too pungent for my taste. My juicer recommended adding other spices like turmeric, and in the future, I would, but I wanted to give this an accurate evaluation. But my homemade tea? Now that was a little treat I looked forward to each evening. In fact, as an added benefit, it even helped cut any late-night snack cravings. Will I keep going? While I'm not sure I will continue taking it in pure shot form, I definitely plan on ending my days with the tea. I couldn't believe how simple (and, frankly, how cheap) it was to make each evening, considering the holistic benefits I felt almost immediately. As I mentioned, drinking it right before bed reduced my urge to reach for a midnight snack, and if the small but mighty root continues to help my digestion and reduce post-workout pain, count me in. It might be summertime, but I can't wait to enjoy the scratch-made ginger tea in the colder months (with a little honey. . . maybe even bourbon, too).

(Twitter screen capture) 589 shares Saudi Arabia’s controversial crown prince drew condemnation from critics on Tuesday after walking on the roof of the Kaaba, the cube-shaped building that stands on the holiest site in Islam. Mohammed bin Salman was visiting the Kaaba in Mecca, to which Muslims around the world pray five times daily, in order to inspect the construction work underway to renovate and expand the vast Grand Mosque complex surrounding it, known to Muslims as the Masjid al-Haram. The Saudi government’s oversight of the complex marks one of its claims to authority and legitimacy. Saudi King Salman’s formal title is the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, the first in Mecca and the second in nearby Medina.

A Saudi feminist charged that the prince was attempting to mollify Islamists with the visit after a “backlash” caused by his “liberation reforms.” Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman of Saudi Arabia, front left, visits the Kaaba shrine at the Grand Mosque in Mecca, February 12, 2019.

(MAHMUD HAMS / AFP) 7 shares An IDF soldier was moderately injured in clashes along the northern Gaza border on Sunday night, days after a similar attack lightly wounded a Border Police officer, the army said. The serviceman appeared to have been hit by an improvised explosive thrown by Palestinians during a riot along the Gaza border, east of the city of Jabaliya, around 9:00 p.m., the Israel Defense Forces said. He was taken to Ashkelon’s Barzilai Medical Center in moderate condition. The soldier sustained shrapnel wounds to the neck, the hospital said. Get The Times of Israel's Daily Edition by email and never miss our top stories FREE SIGN UP During the same clash in the northern Gaza Strip, 19 Palestinians were injured by Israeli gunfire, the spokesman for the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry said in a statement to reporters. They suffered varying injuries of different degrees, he added. One person was seriously injured, sustaining a head wound, according to the health ministry. The Gaza health ministry spokesman said there were no Palestinian fatalities in the clash. Palestinian media reported that the rioters tried to breach the security fence, but were driven back by Israeli gunfire. In response to the riot, Israeli tanks shelled two Hamas observation posts near the border, the army said. The military said during the riot, dozens of Palestinian rioters burned tires and threw improvised explosive devices at the security fence surrounding the northern Gaza Strip and the Israeli troops on the other side. “An IDF soldier was injured apparently by an explosive device that was thrown at him,” the army said. After doctors worked to stop the bleeding to his neck, the soldier was taken into surgery, the hospital said. The Sunday night clash came two days after a massive border riot in which an Israeli Border Police officer from an undercover unit was lightly wounded by shrapnel in the leg when a pipe bomb exploded next to his team, police said. An Israeli Military Intelligence assessment released last Wednesday warned that Hamas, the terror group that controls Gaza, may seek to spark a war with Israel in the near future in an attempt to elicit international sympathy and an influx of international aid money to the Gaza Strip. The IDF believes Hamas or the Iran-backed Palestinian Islamic Jihad, the second largest terror group in Gaza, could attempt to draw Israel into a war by conducting an attack along the border — an anti-tank missile strike, an ambush from an as-yet-undiscovered tunnel or a similar low-level but significant attack. In light of this view, IDF chief Lt. Gen. Aviv Kohavi, whose tenure began last month, called for the military to update operational plans for fighting in the Gaza Strip. Palestinian protesters run toward the fence along the border with Israel, east of Gaza City, on February 15, 2019. An Israeli military vehicle is pictured on the other side of the fence. (Said Khatib/AFP) Since last March, the Gaza border has seen large-scale weekly clashes on Fridays, smaller protests along the northern Gaza border on Tuesdays, as well as periodic flareups between the Israeli military and Palestinian terror organizations. For the past several months, Egypt, UN special coordinator to the Middle East peace process Nikolay Mladenov and Qatar have worked to try to restore calm in Gaza and prevent flareups between Israel and terror groups in the Strip. Israel has demanded an end to the violent demonstrations along the border in any ceasefire agreement. Earlier this month Israel announced that it had begun the final phase of construction of a 20-foot (some 6 meters) high galvanized steel fence that will completely surround the Strip. The barrier will extend 65 kilometers (40 miles) miles around the enclave and sit atop the subterranean concrete wall that Israel is constructing around Gaza to block terrorist groups’ attack tunnels.

(Tomer Neuberg/Flash90) 3 shares The security cabinet on Sunday approved the implementation of a law to cut over half a billion shekels in funds to the Palestinian Authority over its payments to terrorists and their families. Applying the law has faced opposition from the security establishment, who worry it could destabilize the situation in the West Bank. A statement from the security cabinet said that ministers agreed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could withhold NIS 502,697,000 ($138 million) in PA tax revenues, the amount Israeli officials say the PA paid out in stipends to attackers and their families in 2018. Get The Times of Israel's Daily Edition by email and never miss our top stories FREE SIGN UP Netanyahu also instructed security authorities to examine additional payments the PA is making in relation to terrorists and their families, the statement said. “The amount frozen will be adjusted accordingly,” it noted. The $138 million will likely be deducted incrementally over a 12-month period, according to local media reports. Senior Palestine Liberation Organization official Ahmed Majdalani accused Israel and the United States, which has cut hundreds of millions of dollars in Palestinian aid, of an attempt at blackmail. “The occupation government is seeking to destroy the national authority in partnership with the US administration of Donald Trump,” Majdalani said in a statement. He described the move as “piracy.” Acting Palestinian Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah responded to the cabinet decision by calling the witholding of funds “collective punishment.” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (L), Zvi Hauser (C) and Moshe Ya’alon attend the weekly cabinet meeting at the Prime Minister’s office in Jerusalem on March 10, 2013. (Miriam Alster/Flash90) Economy and Industry Minister Eli Cohen, a member of the security cabinet, welcomed the decision. “It can’t be that the families of terrorists who murdered Jews in cold blood, enjoy a stipend or wage for those acts of terror,” he said. “Today, in the cabinet, we stopped that absurdity.” Israel collects around $127 million a month in customs duties levied on goods destined for Palestinian markets that transit through Israeli ports, and then transfers the money to the PA. The law withholding the tax revenues, passed by the Knesset last year, is opposed by Israeli security officials who say further cuts to the PA budget could hurt security cooperation and destabilize the West Bank. The government has refused to implement the measure, though politicians have faced public pressure to crack down on the PA’s payments, which are viewed as incentivizing terror attacks. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Austrian President Alexander Van der Bellen standing at the PA presidential headquarters in Ramallah on February 5, 2019. (Credit: Wafa) At the meeting, security officials warned ministers that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas would not halt the payments but rather cut funding for the Gaza Strip, which is ruled by the Hamas terror group, Channel 12 television reported. Officials cautioned that a further cut to services in the enclave, already ravaged by economic and humanitarian difficulties, could ignite violence directed at Israel. Such a development would shatter a fragile calm which has settled on the Israel-Gaza border following months of violent protests. Netanyahu, who is seeking reelection this April, has come under increasing pressure to act in the wake of the brutal murder of an Israeli teen in a terrorist attack earlier this month. Last week, he told ministers that he would deduct the payments immediately after he received permission from the security cabinet.

The case has sparked outrage across the country. Irfayia, who reenacted the events for investigators, claimed he murdered Ansbacher for Palestinian nationalistic reasons however Israel’s Shin Bet security agency said that during interrogation he admitted also raping Ansbacher.
