Botanical name: Zingiber officinale
Ginger is an Asian herb that has been used medicinally in the West for at least two millennia. Ginger is a spicy herb that has historically been used to relieve chills and warm the stomach.
The main fragrant component of ginger is the oleoresin, or oily resin, which is extracted from the rhizomes and contains a multitude of bioactive components thought to have a wide range of noteworthy physiological and pharmacological effects.
Research indicates that ginger can effectively lower the body's inflammatory markers. Moreover, individuals who consistently include ginger in their diets are at a lower risk of developing high blood pressure and coronary heart disease in comparison to those who do not.
Many digestive issues, such as wind, indigestion, colic, and nausea, respond well to ginger therapy. It is also helpful for intestinal infections due to its antibacterial qualities.
