Ancient physicians, such as Hildegard von Bingen and Asian herbalists, praised the invigorating effects of ginger. As a warming spice, it is said to help activate the body and promote the flow of life energy, known as Qi. In Ayurveda, ginger is referred to as "Maha-Aushadhi—the great medicine," which can balance Vata and Kapha. In modern science, ginger is primarily known for its bioactive compounds such as gingerols and shogaols.

Conveniently take ginger in capsule form

Ginger capsules can be taken at any time of day. Some people take them with meals as a digestive aid, others on an empty stomach to combat nausea. Ginger capsules should generally be taken with plenty of water to help dissolve the capsules and absorb the active ingredients. Ginger combines well with turmeric. Rosehip and ginger are also often taken together, especially during the colder seasons.

How many milligrams of gingerol and shogaol are contained in one ginger capsule?

Our manufacturer has determined the value for gingerol. It is approximately 4 mg gingerol per daily dose (2 capsules). Shogaol is formed from gingerol when it is dried. The majority of gingerol is converted into shogaol.
