Customer Reviews of Nature's Way Ginger Root, 550 mg, 100 Capsules
Customer Review: 3 GREAT REASONS TO KEEP MY FAVORITE BRAND OF GINGER HANDY + MANY MANY MORE!,
Summary: 5 Stars
------> 3 GREAT REASONS TO KEEP GINGER HANDY + MANY MANY MORE . . . . !
WHAT'S GINGER GOOD FOR:
As a tonic, Ginger Root does many things, but Motion sickness and Vertigo are the ailments that you would bring ginger capsules with you for. Morning sickness and nausea are reasons to keep ginger at home. The essential oils are what give ginger its potency. This "Nature's Way" product is guaranteed to contain at least 1.5% essential oil, mostly "gingerol" and "shogaol", which is why "Nature's Way" has the edge over other brands.
WHEN ANGELA AND I GET DIZZY AND NAUSEOUS:
When my teenager gets dizzy at the amusement park, Ginger Capsules help her get over her nausea and stops her head from spinning. When I am on a ferry and get a little sea sick, Ginger capsules help me regain my balance. Usually I take them about a half hour prior to departing and I avoid the symptoms. My daughter also takes Ginger capsules when we go for a long trip and she has to sit in the back of our van to avoid car sickness. In all these applications the "Ginger Root Capsules" work and work well!
Ordinarily, I make my own capsules from "Cerified Organic" ginger root powder. However, sometimes I just don't have the time or I run out of the ginger root powder. These "NATURE'S WAY Ginger Root capsules" are less expensive and they work for these applications just as well as the home-made capsules.
WHAT ELSE IS GINGER GOOD FOR?
Glad you asked, here's the list in descending order alphabetically according to "Healthnotes";
[MOST STRONGLY DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE] Motion sickness, Osteoarthritis.
[DOCUMENTED] Epilepsy (in combination with bupleurum, peony root, pinellia root, cassia bark, jujube fruit, Asian ginseng root, Asian scullcap root, and licorice root), Indigestion, Irritable bowel syndrome (Chinese herbal combination formula containing wormwood, ginger, bupleurum, schisandra, dan shen, and other extracts), Morning sickness,Nausea and vomiting following surgery, Nausea following chemotherapy, Pre- and post-surgery health, Vertigo.
[ANECDOTAL EVIDENCE] Atherosclerosis,Hay fever (Sho-seiryu-to: contains licorice, cassia bark, schisandra, ma huang [ephedra], ginger, peony root, pinellia, and asiasarum root), HIV support (in combination with bupleurum, peony root, pinellia root, cassia bark, ginger root, jujube fruit, Asian ginseng root, Asian scullcap root, and licorice root), Low back pain, Migraine headaches, Rheumatoid arthritis.
Anecdotal evidence means, people say they have used it and it works. Like I claim it helps my daughter and I against motion sickness. However, there is strong documentation from double-blind studies proving ginger root's effectiveness against motion sickness which is why it is listed in the "most strongly documented" group by "Healthnotes".
We cook with ginger root and add it to literally everything, everyday. In "Traditional Chinese Medicine" it adds heat, but it also is a minister of other herbs and assists the liver in utilizing the nutritional factors that one consumes in a typical meal. Ginger also makes marinated beef tender and aids in digesting proteins in your body in much the same way.
ABOUT BRANDS:
For price and value its hard to beat the "Swanson" brand. "Nature's Way" would usually be my first choice with the "Now" brand second when I don't have the opportunity to use my own certified organic powder. The "Nature's Way" product offered here is guaranteed to contain at least 1.5% essential oil, mostly "gingerol" and "shogaol", which is why it has the edge over other brands. Unlike most premium brands it is available heavily discounted.
