Ginger For Healing
As powerful as turmeric, ginger is another root that's too good to miss. Fresh or dried, it works as a tonic for your joints, heart, immunity, and gut. Simply put, it can do it all!
Potatoes For Weight Loss
Boiled, cooled potatoes develop resistant starches, carbs that resist digestion and work like fibres, filling you up for long and curbing hunger. Cool, right?!

Beets For Blood Pressure
