Are you knowledgeable about the power of ginger?
Annie Bassin, the talented woman behind Annie’s Ginger Elixir, is a passionate and knowledgeable entrepreneur on a dedicated mission to help you live a healthier life.
Her influence and story stems from childhood. “Growing up in a Chinese household my mother would always tell us about the functions of food,” she said. “Food was not just sustenance, but they all served certain purposes for your health.”
Bassin brews and shares her home remedy out of Brooklyn, New York.
Being constantly sick as a child and learning about the power of food as medicine was the catalyst for her passion today.
Annie said, “It made me acutely aware of things that you introduced to your body and their effects, the good and the bad.”
She created the Ginger Elixir “out of her own health needs,” as she had “suffered her entire childhood” with health conditions including:
• Upper respiratory infections
• Sinus infections
• Bronchitis
Annie’s Ginger Elixir “has a multitude of health benefits.”
What was recommended by her doctors for her health conditions?
Antibiotics.
“Frustrated by my constant dependency on antibiotics, which in the end just suppressed my infections to just re-appear every 3 months,” Annie went on to develop her famous ginger elixir.
“Knowing the anti-inflammatory powers of ginger, I decided to start making a ginger tea 30+ years ago, which grew more and more potent until it resolved my own health issues,” she stated.
How is Annie’s Ginger Elixir different from its competitors?
“The majority of ginger wellness drinks/shots on the market are cold-pressed. The process of cold-pressed shots is to press the juice out of a raw piece of ginger which is really harsh to drink,” she explained.
“Our process of hot-brewing allowed for me to create a ginger tea that was not only potent, but delicious and balanced in taste. You can immediately taste the difference,” she continued.
There is another benefit to hot-brewing compared to cold-pressed.
“The process of heating the ginger also has additional health benefits the heating process brings out, converting Gingerols into Shogaols which has powerful antioxidants,” Annie stated.
Annie has vast experience in trying myriad concoctions to get her well.
“As a child, I grew up taking a lot of herbal medications that my mother would purchase in Chinatown; while effective, they really tasted terrible – often I would rather be sick than consume some of these natural remedies,” she said.
Every experience provides a lesson and an opportunity for growth. In Annie’s case, it all led to today and the powerful Blue Zones friendly beverage that is here to help your health, not hurt it.
“To encourage my own daily consumption, I created Annie’s Ginger Elixir to be as delicious as it is good for you!” Annie concluded.
