Benefits

Here are six health benefits of ginger and how to add it to your diet.

  1. Prevents cell damage

Ginger root has one of the highest levels of antioxidants. Antioxidants prevent oxidative stress, a process that is associated with diseases like cancer, diabetes, and stroke. Oxidative stress occurs when there are too many free radicals — molecules naturally produced by metabolic processes — in the body. Antioxidants stabilize free radicals and prevent oxidative stress, thereby protecting the body from disease.

  1. Reduces inflammation

Ginger also acts as an anti-inflammatory thanks to its antioxidant properties. An excess of free radicals can cause inflammation — your body's natural immune response to harmful foreign objects. 

  1. Treats nausea 

Ginger contains a compound called gingerol.  Gingerol is known for improving gastric motility — the passage of food through the body — and suppressing muscle spasms. This can help settle the stomach and reduce symptoms of nausea and vomiting.

  1. Eases menstrual pains 

Ginger can also act as a remedy for menstrual cramps. Ginger suppresses the production of chemicals that make your uterus contract, causing pain. 

  1. May regulate blood sugar levels

 Ginger can help control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes by increasing glucose uptake in muscle cells without insulin

  1. May treat indigestion 

Ginger stimulates digestive enzymes responsible for moving food through the body more quickly, which prevents gas.
