Ginger Essential Oil
|
Taken from the rhizome (the subterranean stalk of a plant that shoots out the root system), Ginger has many traditional uses.
A featured ingredient in many Asian dishes, Ginger has a hot, fragrant flavor when used as a kitchen spice. In Western tradition, Ginger is most often used in sweets - gingerbread and ginger snaps being two examples.
Studies have been conducted on Ginger for its positive effect on joint health; however, Ginger is best known as an effective digestive aid and for helping to ease indigestion and nausea.
As a powerful tonic for the entire digestive system, Ginger can lessen motion sickness, soothe an upset stomach and help digest food after a large meal.
Ginger can also be applied topically or inhaled to help with digestion issues.
