Great suggestion Passion to add the herbs to foods.

May I just add that if you are in an active digestive attack from too much yin food (cold, fruit etc.) often the heat of the tea is also helpful in heating up the digestion.

Tea also has the added side benefit of going through the body quickly and helping right away. Nothing can be better than a cup of ginger tea when you have an upset tummy.

I also thought of another very yang and fabulous food. Non-pasteurized miso broth. Wow, is that tasty and grounding. In warm/hot water it can settle me and make me strong like nothing else when I'm "yinning out". If you have mucous ginger and miso are miracles. It's almost like they evaporate mucous on contact.

I used to put fresh ginger in milk when a teenager. I wonder what ginger would be like in fresh raw goat's milk.
