Article The pharmaceutical, insecticidal and antioxidant properties of Ginger
What a fascinating article. Great research. I am a nurse interested in health promotion. I believed that people focus too much on medicine and not enough on the healing properties of food. I will be able to use this with my health teaching. In fact, I intend to try it on myself and our nephew with ulcerative colitis.brigid

Ginger is a great natural antioxidant and has numerous medicinal properties. It is best eaten raw after its skin is removed. Not suitable in those with known hypersensitivity and those with GERD and Peptic Ulcer Disease
Thank you Navin Kumar Devaraj for your comment. I have Gerd and there are times when I do not find that ginger helps me, but it usually helps. Of course, I use candied ginger, ground ginger and if I use fresh ginger, it is always cooked. I find raw ginger to be too spicy for me, but I am a wimp.

Dear Dr Navin Kumar Devaraj ,
Thank you very much for your contribution to the discussion. Food is underestimated for it value to maintaining and regaining health. I agree with the benefits of fruits and vegetables. Dad was a heavy smoker and drinker, but his 4-5 servings of fruit/veg for each meal helped off set his bad habits. He was a farmer so he had good water, clean air and food that we grew, as well as plenty of exercise. He survived septic shock 3 times. He died at 87 of
a gangrenous gallbladder.
