Ginger has existed for centuries and grows in India, China, Mexico, and many other countries. The rhizome (underground stem) is used in culinary arts and in herbal medicine.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has recommended ginger for over 2,500 years.
It is commonly used for digestion, respiratory disorders, motion sickness, and mobility problems. Ginger is frequently used in Ayurvedic systems of medicine to promote anti-inflammatory joint diseases.
The dried rhizome of ginger contains approximately 1-4% volatile oils.
These are therapeutically active constituents of ginger and are also respon-
sible for ginger’s characteristic odor and taste. The aromatic constituents include zingiberene and bisabolene, while the pungent constituents are credited to promote the anti-nausea and anti-vomiting effects of ginger.
Ginger acts directly on the gastrointestinal system to reduce nausea.
Ginger has been shown to promote the decrease of motion sickness symp-
toms associated with travel by boat. A preliminary trial has suggested ginger may be helpful in cases of chemotherapy-induced nausea.
Ginger is considered a tonic for the digestive tract, stimulating digestion and toning the intestinal muscles. This action eases the transport of substances through the digestive tract, lessening irritation to the intestinal walls. Ginger may protect the stomach from the damaging effects of alcohol and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and may help inhibit the development of ulcers. Ginger may also support cardiovascular health.
