Whole Formulas Ginger Root, 90 ct

Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is a rhizome in the Zingiberaceae family, which also includes turmeric, cardamom and galangal. Is is widely used as a digestive aid and support for gastrointestinal ailments. In 77 A.D., the ancient Greek physician Dioscorides recorded that ginger “warms and softens the stomach.”

Indigenous to southern China, ginger has been used for more than 2,000 years to treat upset stomach, diarrhea and nausea. It reigns supreme in Ayurvedic medicine (traditional Hindu medicine), used for cooking and an extensive list of medicinal applications. India is currently the largest producer of ginger in the world.

High in antioxidants, ginger is an excellent defense against cellular damage. It contains powerful anti-inflammatory compounds and may aid GI distress (nausea in particular). Categorized as a “warming” herb in Ayurveda, ginger promotes circulation, immune and metabolic function and detoxification through the lymphatic system.
