Bio-Health Ginger Root 60 Caps

Description

A warming, settling herb. A recognised daily diet constituent in a variety of different foodstuffs.

Ginger contains volatile oil (including zingiberine, zingiberole, phellandrene, borneol, cineole and citral); phenols (gingeole, zingerone), shagaol, starch, mucilage, resin, and a possible alkaloid.

In feverish conditions ginger promotes perspiration. It is also used as an expectorant and to treat colds and chills. By stimulating the circulation and improving blood flow to the extremities by dilating the blood vessels, its warming action is of benefit to those suffering from cold hands and feet, Raynaud’s syndrome and chilblains.

Ginger encourages the flow of saliva and gastric juices and is a valuable remedy in the treatment of dyspepsia, flatulence and colic. It increases peristalsis and reduces intestinal muscle spasms. It may also be of benefit for cramping period pains.

Ginger is probably used most to treat nausea, from motion sickness and the morning sickness of pregnancy, to the unpleasant side-effects of chemotherapy.
