Hello friends, nice to greet you. I'm Yeli Marín and this is my first post in this community. I have been preparing some drinks that have been recommended to me, but I did not have the opportunity to take pictures of them and document their elaboration process.
To tell the truth, I am just starting to get used to the consumption of infusions and drinks, of which I did not know all their beneficial properties for my health.
I have been dragging many habits of consumption of some foods such as ultra-processed foods and sugary drinks, which has considerably influenced my health, so I decided this 2025, to take action and improve my lifestyle.
So I have researched about these drinks and how they can help me with certain health conditions that I face. To be honest, in this process of adaptation I am adding lemon to everything to adapt to these new flavors that I have had a hard time perceiving, but like everything in life is a process and this is mine.
So I was researching and I needed to take a tea that would help me to reduce inflammation in my body, because among some of the diagnoses is fatty liver, so I had to take immediate action.
So I was recommended a powerful ginger tea, accompanied by curcuma, pepper and I accompanied it with lemon. At first it was strange this new flavor, I had never taken it before, but as I said, the lemon has facilitated this process.
So I put a cup of water in the candle and added a small piece of ginger, finely chopped, until the water boiled and I could feel that the ginger gave off its concentrate in the water.
Then I strained it and added this ginger infusion in a large cup to which I added a spoonful of curcuma powder, along with a pinch of black pepper to enhance the properties of curcumin and I finished by squeezing the juice of half a lemon, which was very juicy.
Then I stirred it until all the ingredients of my tea were integrated and I drank it hot, stirring it constantly with each sip to avoid the curcuma powder to remain at the bottom.
This tea was recommended to me to de-inflate my body, cleanse the toxins from my body and improve the condition of my liver, I'm doing it once a week on an empty stomach. I have already done it twice and I hope the results are favorable.
These are powerful anti-inflammatory ingredients and will also help me to reduce fluid retention and cleanse my body progressively, since I have been documenting myself about the properties that curcuma has to eliminate parasites from the body and old cells, so without hesitation I prepared it.
Soon I will be taking other infusions with medicinal properties that are the benefits I am looking for at this time and why not, make it part of my daily intake. My diet is changing, I am learning to eat and take better foods, I have left the soda for tea and healthy infusions and I hope that everything flows for me correctly.
