Ginger has been used for centuries to treat many different health conditions. Some of the many uses of ginger include:
Nausea and vomiting can be effectively treated with 1 gram of ginger. Studies were done on a group of 30 pregnant women with severe vomiting. Those who ingested 1 gram of ginger every day for 4 days reported more relief from vomiting than those who received placebo. For many years ginger has been used in traditional medical practices to reduce inflammation. Ginger is also said to reduce nausea associated with chemotherapy. Evidence from a few studies suggests that ginger reduces the severity and duration of nausea. Ginger is said to also may lower cholesterol and help prevent the blood from clotting. Since ginger can spoil easily, you can use the ginger extract.
