Interesting Facts
Ginger has a long history as a sea sickness and anti-nausea remedy and can be highly effective for relieving morning sickness, a pregnancy related effect. Ginger’s anti-diabetic properties are noted in a study from 2015 of 41 participants with type 2 diabetes. Two grams of ginger powder lowered fasting blood sugar by 12% and in another study the markers for long-term blood sugar levels experienced a 10% reduction over 12 weeks.
The difference between this and the commercial ginger that has been bred for a higher yield and for higher profitability is apparent. Lab analysis shows the superiority of our primitive local variety in detail.

The traditional drying method still used today is to boil or steam the ginger rhizome root to soften it in preparation for drying. The excessive use of heat de-natures the enzymes, diminishes the value of thermo-sensitive vitamins, volatilizes and dissipates essential oils, and reduces the value of other vital ingredients. Our Cellular Fracture-Line technology does not expose our ginger powder to heat during any part of the drying process.
Gingerol is a natural oil and the bio-active compound most responsible for its powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Ginger has been shown to speed up the emptying of the stomach which helps to reduce chronic indigestion and women’s menstrual pain relief is a traditional use of ginger supported in a study where 150 women taking 1 gram of ginger powder per day during their first 3 days of menstruation reduced pain as effectively as commonly used drugs.
