Buried ginger and turmeric wine has long been known as an effective remedy to help new mothers quickly regain their pre-pregnancy figure. In the article below, AVAKids’ Pregnancy section will share the benefits and how to make buried ginger and turmeric wine for postpartum mothers most effectively!

Steps to Infuse Buried Ginger and Turmeric Wine

According to folk remedies, massaging buried ginger and turmeric wine onto the abdomen, thighs, etc., not only helps reduce excess fat but also effectively fades dark spots and stretch marks after giving birth. Below is the standard recipe for infusing buried ginger and turmeric wine for mothers:

Ingredients

  • Ginger: 1 kg
  • Fresh Turmeric: 1 kg
  • Rice Wine: 3 – 5 liters
  • Glass or earthenware jar (with lid): 5 – 7 liters capacity
  • Tools: Knife, cutting board, pestle, mortar

Instructions

  1. First, after purchasing ginger and turmeric, if there’s a lot of soil on them, dry them in the sun for about 30 minutes to make cleaning easier.
  2. Wash the prepared ginger and turmeric with water, let them dry, then peel the outer skin. Alternatively, you can choose a quicker method by chopping them into small pieces and crushing them directly. Note: When peeling, wear gloves to avoid turmeric staining your skin or ginger essential oil causing burns.
  3. After peeling, chop the ginger and turmeric into small pieces, crush them with a mortar and pestle, and place them in a clean, dry glass jar. Then, pour in the rice wine and shake well to mix the wine and the ginger-turmeric mixture thoroughly. Make sure the wine covers the mixture by about 3-5 cm.
  4. Cover the jar tightly with a lid or plastic wrap. Then, you can choose to bury it for 3 months and 10 days or store it in a cool, dry place to prevent fermentation and spoilage, ensuring the best quality wine.
  5. After 3 months and 10 days, you can dig it up for use. Be sure to check the quality of the wine before using it. Properly infused wine will have a deep yellow color like pure honey, with no film or bubbles.

Benefits of Buried Ginger and Turmeric Wine for New Mothers

Benefits of Turmeric

Turmeric is known as a natural remedy that has been used in medicine and beauty for over 5000 years in South Asian countries. Turmeric contains a high amount of curcumin, a compound that has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxifying properties. This is why using turmeric helps to smooth skin, reduce red acne, dark spots, etc.

Benefits of Ginger

Ginger is a very famous herb in Traditional Eastern Medicine. It has a spicy, warm nature and the ability to dispel wind and cold, warm the middle Jiao and stop vomiting, and warm and open the meridians. Therefore, postpartum mothers who have lost a lot of Qi and blood, are susceptible to cold, and often experience chills should use ginger to restore their health after giving birth.

Benefits of Wine

In Traditional Eastern Medicine, wine is a remedy with a bitter and spicy taste and a warm nature. It guides medicine to the meridians, effectively regulating Qi and blood and promoting blood circulation. Perhaps this is why wine is often used to infuse herbs, acting as both a solvent and enhancing the medicinal effects of the remedy.

The wonderful benefits of buried ginger and turmeric wine for postpartum mothers are:

  • Warms the body, reduces chills, and limits the risk of colds and postpartum diseases.
  • Massaging with buried ginger and turmeric wine helps effectively reduce belly fat after giving birth.
  • Helps fade dark spots, stretch marks, and melasma after giving birth.
  • Regular use of buried ginger and turmeric wine helps postpartum mothers recover quickly.

Notes on Making Buried Ginger and Turmeric Wine for Postpartum Mothers

Some important notes for pregnant women to remember when making buried ginger wine:

  • To ensure the quality of the buried ginger wine, mothers need to pay close attention to the selection of ingredients: choose small ginger roots, also known as ginger fingers; turmeric should be sticky turmeric with small roots, thin skin, and dark yellow flesh; the wine should be pure white rice wine with an alcohol content of 30% or higher, etc.
  • Mothers can choose to infuse each ingredient separately with wine and then mix them into a mixture before burying. However, if using this method, mothers need to double the amount of ginger/turmeric or reduce the amount of wine by about half.

How to Apply Ginger Wine for Postpartum Mothers

Using ginger and turmeric wine after childbirth is very simple, but not all mothers know how to apply it correctly. You can apply ginger and turmeric wine to areas such as the armpits, thighs, elbows, and abdomen to care for the skin and help the body recover.

Instructions:

  • Pour about 20-50ml of ginger and turmeric wine into a small dish.
  • Use a soft, clean washcloth to soak up some ginger and turmeric wine, then apply it to the skin areas that need care.
  • Gently massage in a clockwise direction, from the outside in, to maximize the effectiveness of the ginger and turmeric wine.
  • Massage for about 15-20 minutes, while gently patting the abdomen, from the hips to the navel, to help circulate and relax the body.
  • Do this regularly twice a day, and you will see noticeable results.

When Can Postpartum Mothers Use Ginger and Turmeric Wine?

To apply ginger wine, postpartum mothers should wait until lochia (postpartum bleeding) has completely stopped, usually after about 4-6 weeks, and their body has begun to stabilize. Specifically:

  • For vaginal delivery: At least after 3 weeks
  • For cesarean delivery: Wait until the incision has completely healed (usually about 6 weeks) before using it to avoid affecting the wound and causing infection.

Should Ginger and Turmeric Wine be Applied to the Face?

Although ginger and turmeric wine offers many health and beauty benefits, applying it to the face, especially sensitive skin, is not recommended. Mothers should absolutely not apply ginger and turmeric wine to their faces, as it can cause serious side effects such as:

  • Skin irritation: The ingredients in ginger and turmeric wine, especially ginger, are hot and can cause irritation, redness, and even burning of the facial skin.
  • Dry skin: Alcohol can dry out the skin, making it tight and flaky.
  • Increased sun sensitivity: Ginger can increase the skin’s sensitivity to sunlight, causing dark spots and darkening of the skin.
