🔥 Have you ever had a sore throat or funny tummy and been told to knock back some ginger? Well, we can confirm that this old wife’s tale does in fact have some truth to it.  Gingerol is the main bioactive compound in ginger which gives ginger its distinctive smell. In addition to the unique smell gingerol certainly delivers a healthy dose of anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects.

 

🔥 Feeling ill? Munch on a ginger biscuit, is another phrase many of us have been told. Well although we probably wouldn’t advise ploughing your way through a pack of ginger biscuits, we can confirm that ginger does appear to be highly effective against nausea.
