• Digestive health : Ginger accelerates the process of gastric emptying and enhances the absorption of nutrients in the digestive tract. Its ability to improve iron absorption makes it effective in addressing anemia. Numerous clinical trials support its efficacy in alleviating symptoms of nausea and vomiting.

• Morning sickness : An Australian analysis of clinical trials investigating the use of ginger for alleviating morning sickness concluded that “The most reliable evidence indicates that ginger is a safe and efficient remedy for PNV.”

• Pain relief : Several small-scale research studies have indicated that ginger diminishes muscle pain, such as that experienced after exercise, owing to its robust anti-inflammatory effects. In one study, it was discovered that after two months of treatment, ginger was as successful in alleviating menstrual cramps as mefenamic acid, a type of aspirin-like painkiller. In a 2014 clinical trial conducted in Iran, the effects of ginger and sumatriptan (a painkiller) in relieving migraines were compared, and the report suggested that both treatments were similarly effective.
  • Digestive problems : Ginger is considered beneficial for a wide range of digestive issues. It serves as an excellent solution for symptoms like indigestion, nausea, flatulence, bloating, and cramps, whether consumed as an infusion, juice, tincture, powder, or incorporated into meals. Its antiseptic properties make it valuable in treating various gastrointestinal infections, including cases of food poisoning.

   

  • Circulatory stimulant : Ginger has a stimulating effect on circulation, facilitating blood flow to the skin’s surface. This characteristic makes it a significant remedy for conditions like chilblains and poor circulation in the hands and feet. Applying juice extracted from fresh ginger root directly to chilblains, as well as cold sores, can provide rapid relief.

   

  •  Respiratory conditions : Ginger exhibits antiviral properties, serving as an excellent remedy for coughs, colds, flu, and various respiratory issues. Contrary to its warming nature, ginger promotes perspiration, aiding in cooling and managing fevers.
