Ginger Root

Anti-inflammatory Herb

Better known for its anti-nausea properties, ginger is also an effective COX-2 inhibiting herb historically used for arthritis and rheumatism. Anti-inflammatory compounds called gingerols block the action of the COX-2 enzyme--without the side effects of drugs.

The COX-2 enzyme is necessary to the body in a healthy attempt to heal itself --and inflammation is a part of this process. But excessive inflammation has the reverse effect of interfereing with the healing process.

Ginger Root helps to relieve chronic pain by reducing inflammation.

Many digestive, anti-nausea, and cold & flu supplements
sold in the U.S. contain ginger extract as an ingredient.

Ginger root has been used as a medicine in Asian, Indian, and Arabic herbal traditions since ancient times to treat stomach aches, nausea and diarrhea. Knowing this fact, researchers at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah conducted studies of powdered gingerroot in capsule form in the early 1980s and found it to be more effective in curing motion sickness and nausea than many popular over-the-counter medications.†

Ginger has been used for:

  • rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, joint and muscle pain
  • stimulate circulation to bring more blood circulation to arthritic joints
  • post surgery nausea as well as nausea caused by chemotherapy, and pregnancy
  • stomach aches, nausea, and diarrhea
  • nausea caused by motion-- German health authorities recommend 2-4 grams of powered ginger daily to prevent motion sickness.
  • ease headaches
  • quiet coughs
  • lower cholesterol
  • regulate menstruation
