Ginger is among some of the world’s oldest and most popular medicinal spices. It has powerful anti-inflammatory compounds called gingerols, making it a highly effective painkiller, helping those who deal with joint, muscle, and nerve pain. Ginger is also a highly effective immune-booster and has been shown to provide relief for a wide range of illnesses.
Ginger + Lemon + Cayenne is a triple-threat juice shot that not only cleanses and detoxifies the body, but it also boosts the metabolism.

All three of these ingredients combined pack serious medicinal benefits.
