German doctor Jost Langhorst and his team use ginger to treat various diseases. Ginger plays an important role in our integrative medicine and naturopathy clinic. It is used daily for various purposes, such as a powder to be rubbed on the body, or as a tea to fight against diseases such as loss of appetite, indigestion, or nausea. There are also ginger capsules. The doctor gave it to 25-year-old Madeleine Dusenberger for lower abdominal pain. I have nausea and flatulence. I get diarrhea after eating certain foods.

I have nausea and lower abdominal pain three to four days a week. I have eaten ginger at home, but the amount was not large. Now I hope that Ginger will do the full job. In addition to capsules and tea, ginger powder is used. It is given to patients suffering from fatigue. For example, Alexander Ensmann had long Covid. Ginger gives a feeling of comfort to the skin and can also relieve pain. Ginger contains a lot of sesquiterpene oil. It also contains gingerol and shagaol. It also contains a lot of vitamin C. That is why ginger increases the body's immunity.

The effect of the pungent ingredients and oils begins on the tongue. It also affects the entire digestive process. For example, in the duodenum, digestive enzymes break down partially digested food. There they can help with digestion and relieve nausea. Dr. Gabi Anderson at the Leibniz Institute for Food Systems Biology in Munich, Germany, tested the effects of ginger on the blood of healthy people and found that the pungent ingredients in ginger keep white blood cells on alert. We were able to show that there is a receptor on the blood cells that can be activated by the pungent ingredients in ginger.

Ginger also helps immune cells fight bacterial infections more strongly. Ginger strengthens the immune system. There have also been many studies on its benefits in treating nausea. A meta-analysis of as many as nine studies has been conducted. It has been shown that ginger works very well against motion sickness - even in oncology. There is a separate chapter on ginger in the Complementary Therapies Guide because it has been studied very well. 50 grams of ginger or 5 grams of ginger powder a day is considered safe. Some people may be allergic to ginger, but this is very rare.

Ginger should only be consumed with tea during pregnancy. As it is spicy, you should be careful when mixing ginger in juice. Ginger has no side effects, but those who have sensitive stomachs and heartburn should avoid it. Ginger is quite useful in relieving fatigue and treating nausea. Its spicy content boosts the immune system. Some studies say that it can relieve nausea. Those who have sensitive stomachs should be careful with the amount. Ginger is a versatile home remedy
