GINGER                     STOMACH 
Root ginger, commonly sold in supermarkets, often looks just like the stomach.
So it's interesting that one of its biggest benefits is aiding digestion.
The Chinese have been using it for over 2,000  years to calm the stomach and cure nausea,
while  it is also a popular remedy for motion sickness.  But the benefits could go much further. 
Tests on mice at the University of Minnesota found injecting the chemical that gives ginger its
flavour slowed down the growth rate of bowel tumours.
