Certain spices just seem to suit the season - and a few of our winter favorites have some significant health benefits:
* Cinnamon is a nutritional powerhouse. It’s got iron, calcium and manganese and is loaded with antioxidants too. It can help to lower bad cholesterol and even relieve congestion.
* Cloves rank the highest on the antioxidant spice scale. They can relieve symptoms of asthma and arthritis and even boost creativity and mental focus.
* Ginger is a wonder spice with super healthy compounds. It helps protect our organs and tissues and can sooth several seasonal woes.
