GROUND GINGER BENEFITS

Relieves nausea & morning sickness
Ginger has a calming effect on nausea and other gastrointestinal issues.

Easing a cold or the flu/Sore throat
Many people use ginger to help recover from a cold or the flu. However, the evidence supporting this remedy is mostly anecdotal. Research indicates that fresh ginger may help protect the respiratory system, dried ginger has a lesser impact.

Pain relief including period pain
A 2016 review of studies concluded that ginger may help reduce dysmenorrhea — pain right before or during menstruation.

Reducing inflammation
One group of researchers concluded that taking ginger by mouth is “modestly efficacious and reasonably safe” for treating inflammation caused by osteoarthritis.

Improve Heart Health
There is some evidence that ginger extract may help with cardiovascular disease. For example, one review found that a dosage of 5 g or more can cause significant, beneficial antiplatelet activity.

Meanwhile, one small study found that ginger extract helped reduce the occurrence of heart abnormalities among rats with diabetes. The authors noted that this reduction may stem, in part, from the antioxidant properties of the extract.
