Ginger (Zingiber officinale), also called isiot, is a plant whose roots have been used in China and India since ancient times. It was introduced to Europe in the 13th century by Marco Polo. Initially, it was used mainly in medicine.

Health Benefits:

Ginger is a powerful antioxidant that is often used for various types of inflammation, including rheumatoid arthritis. Its roots contain gingerols, which play an important role in the treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Observations show that people who take ginger for a long time experience a reduction in pain and improved joint movement. Ginger also reduces swelling that accompanies inflammation.

Ginger is also effective in treating a number of gastrointestinal problems, most notably in preventing nausea and vomiting, including during chemotherapy. It also helps soothe various stomach and intestinal disorders.

The healing properties of ginger have been tested on mice, and it turned out that the plant causes cancer cells to self-destruct by eating themselves. As a natural antioxidant, ginger prevents the development of precancerous tumors. It has a particularly strong effect on ovarian cancer and as a prevention of colon cancer. It also helps to alleviate side effects in chemotherapy patients.

Ginger lowers high blood pressure and raises low blood pressure, so it balances this problem well. The rhizome prevents platelets from sticking together and forming dangerous blood clots that lead to clogged arteries, heart attacks, and thrombophlebitis.

Ginger helps the body recover faster from colds, sore throats, and flu. It stimulates the secretion of mucus from the bronchi and clears the respiratory tract. Inhalations with freshly boiled ginger root are recommended for flu and colds.

Purpose:

It is recommended as a spice in culinary. Add to sweet and savory dishes, salads, sauces and more.
