Ancient and powerful natural remedies
Ginger has been considered a powerful natural herb for thousands of years. The ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius ate ginger with his daily meals, and in the 14th century, a pound of ginger was worth the same as a sheep, demonstrating its rarity and value.
Dr. Berg points out that modern research has confirmed that ginger has multiple health benefits:
- Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diabetic
- Promotes digestion and relieves heartburn
- Relieving arthritis and menstrual cramps
-
Increase good cholesterol ( HDL )
However, its most well-known use is its powerful anti-nausea effect . Consuming ginger in moderation can significantly alleviate discomfort during early pregnancy, chemotherapy side effects, menstruation, and post-surgery. Experiments have even shown that ginger is more effective than vitamin B6 in relieving nausea .

When is it not advisable to eat raw ginger?
Although ginger is a natural food ingredient, Dr. Berger reminds that there are several types of people who should avoid or use it with caution :
-
Those taking anticoagulant drugs (such as Warfarin , Aspirin )
Ginger itself has a blood-thinning effect, and if used in conjunction with blood thinners, it may increase the risk of bleeding. -
Patients with hemorrhagic diseases
If you have low platelet count or coagulation disorders, it is recommended to stop consuming it. -
People with diabetes or taking insulin
Ginger can lower blood sugar, but if used at the same time as blood sugar-lowering drugs, it may cause blood sugar to drop too low. -
People taking antihypertensive drugs
Ginger can naturally lower blood pressure, but when used in combination with beta- blockers, calcium channel blockers, or diuretics, it may cause excessively low blood pressure. -
People with gallstones
Ginger can stimulate gallbladder contraction, which may induce pain or blockage if the gallstones are large.
In short, while ginger is beneficial, it's not suitable for everyone . If you are taking medication or have a chronic illness, you should consult your doctor first.
Suggestions for consuming ginger
- To prevent dizziness and aid digestion : Consume in small amounts with meals or brew ginger tea.
