Agreen Ginger Red Dates Longan Tea
I’m sure all you smart ladies know the benefits of incorporating ginger into our diets. Ginger aids digestion and boosts immunity. Drinking a cup of ginger tea is great as a pick-me-up at the end of a long day, not to mention it gives our tired complexion a nice healthy glow. But we don’t do it often because we are I am too lazy to, you know, wash, peel, slice a piece of ginger and steep it in hot water.
Agreen kindly sent over their range of ginger products for me to try and I wish I discovered them during my confinement month because it’s ginger, in its most convenient forms – powder, juice and condensed liquid. And god knows how much ginger we consumed during confinement. This would have saved me a lot of time.
Agreen Ginger Red Dates Longan Tea
Of all the products, I love drinking the ginger red dates longan tea. I feel like I missed out because they taste amazing.
Agreen Ginger Red Dates Longan Tea comes individually packed. All I have to do is tear, pour and add about 200ml of water. No boiling and waiting around required. Honestly, I’ve been sipping it in its condensed liquid form straight out of the packet – it’s yummeh!
Without being able to actually give you a taste of my ginger red dates longan tea – I’ll try to explain as best I can. It has the natural sweetness of red dates and longan with a distinctive taste of ginger. I know it is made with the real stuff and not artificially flavoured because I could actually see and taste the pulp.
I think it is perfect for confinement mother as it is already in the right dosage in terms of taste and strength. Not all hospital provide red dates tea, so having a box of Agreen Ginger Red Dates Longan Tea in your hospital bag will get you started conveniently right after birth.
According to the company, the product is specifically made to help nourish and assist mothers during confinement. It has no preservative. The ginger used are 100% pesticide-free and grown in pristine, clean and natural environment such as Taiwan’s Alishan, so you can consume it safely knowing that there will be no unnecessary burden on the digestive and immune system.
I’m late to the party but I hope it’s not too late to start drinking this on a regular basis. Red dates longan ginger tea is known to nourish blood, qi and helps in relieving menstrual cramps and pains. It is recommended for long-term use, pregnant, post-natal or otherwise.

早安健康∕陳允斌（食療養生作家）為什麼從立夏到頭伏要開始吃「神仙薑棗茶」立夏一過，就是一年一度喝薑棗茶的時間了。許多讀者第一年喝了之後感受到了效果，第二年早早就數著日子準備好。 說起薑棗茶，僅僅用到生薑、大棗這兩樣食材，但如果喝對了時間、喝對了方法，效果就很神奇，所謂大道至簡就是如此吧！每年喝薑棗茶的時間，是從立夏開始，一直到三伏的前一天為止，是兩個月多一點的時間。這兩個月，是夏天的前兩個月，氣溫一天比一天高。為什麼在天氣漸漸熱起來的時候反而要喝薑棗茶呢？
夏天其實是吃薑最好的季節，而秋天是不適合吃薑的。氣溫升高時，皮膚表面熱，脾胃會比較虛寒。我們提前用薑棗茶補補脾胃，夏天會過得舒服一些。經過一冬一春，人體內容易積聚一些病氣。喝薑棗茶可以宣發肺氣，幫助我們把病邪驅趕出去。夏季保健所喝的薑棗茶，方法是很講究的，可以參考它的作法。
夏季食方「神仙薑棗茶」的功效很多人以為長痘痘就是「上火」。其實，痘痘如果只是長在下巴，尤其是中年女性，往往說明人體的下焦有寒氣，是氣血不足的一個表現，而不是我們一般認為身體火大的緣故。薑棗茶是用薑把身體下焦的寒氣驅趕出去，用棗來補氣血。所以常喝這道茶，對於下巴容易長痘痘的人，調理身體的氣血是很有幫助的。薑棗茶特別適合常年在空調環境工作的人群，比如辦公室、商場等。空調的冷風將寒溼帶入人體內，引發頸椎病、腰痛、咳嗽，甚至肥胖等問題。喝一些薑棗茶，有助於將這些寒溼排出體外，許多小毛病也隨之而解了。我有一個朋友持續喝了一個月薑棗茶，意外地發現自己瘦了三公斤。其實這就是薑棗茶使身體新陳代謝加快，排出了多餘水分和代謝廢物的結果。薑棗茶有以下功效1.幫助身體排毒。 2.促進水分代謝。有些人常哀嘆自己「喝水都會胖」。其實這不是胖而是水滯留。這樣體質的人只要喝一週薑棗茶，將多餘的水分排出來，人就變苗條了。 3.調和消化系統功能。生薑和大棗在中醫開方時常用在一起，用來調和脾胃的功能。特別是在感冒之後，人往往感覺噁心、想嘔吐、沒胃口，這時候喝點薑棗茶就可以消除這些不適。薑棗茶對於兒童的脾胃保健也很好。 4.提高免疫系統功能。初夏喝了薑棗茶，人體對於各種病毒的抵抗力會增強，不容易生病。 5.預防下巴長痘痘。

早先的研究发现，生姜可以减少晕车时及手术后的反胃现象，这次的研究则显示，它对孕妇似乎也有相同的功效。
怀孕时，体内整个内分泌系统会产生变化，尤其怀孕初期变动更大。怀孕三个月内会出现害喜现象，孕妇会感到食欲不振﹑恶心呕吐﹑晕眩等不适状况，早上起来也经常发生「晨吐」。三个月以后，以上不适感会慢慢消失。如孕吐严重会影响正常饮食，危害孕妇及胎儿健康。而报告显示姜中所含的姜醇能够发挥止吐作用，且不会有任何有毒的副作用。怀孕初期孕妇可适量喝姜茶减轻害喜不适。 <文from幸孕福助孕中心>
