Introduction | Native to tropical Asia, ginger is a perennial cultivated in the tropical climates of Australia, Brazil, China, India, Jamaica, West Africa, and parts of the United States. The rhizome, which is used medicinally and as a culinary spice, is harvested at 6 to 20 months; taste and pungency increase with maturity. The plant carries a green-purple flower in terminal spikes; the flowers are similar in appearance to orchids. Historical uses for ginger include headaches and migraines, blood pressure and flow, chills, and colds.
Gingerols are the active substances in Ginger extract. Scientific studies have demonstrated that Ginger is an excellent natural stomach-soother and digestive system tonic. In addition, Ginger possesses a number of constituents that may support healthy cardiovascular function, encourage a balanced immune system response, and may help to temporarily alleviate menstrual pain and osteoarthritic pain. |
