GINGER POWDER ........ the natural analgesic 

The root of the pepperweed (often called ginger in Greece), is a popular herb, credited with healing properties, but also used in cooking. It is the underground rhizome of a small plant, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, of the genus: Zingiber. The Scientific name is: Zingiber officinale. Pepperweed has been used since antiquity for its anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties and for its contribution to relieving stomach gas. It contains many ingredients associated with health benefits (essential oils), such as gingerol, gingerone, shogaol, parnesine, and small amounts of beta-phellandrene, cineole, and citral. Gingerols contribute to improving intestinal motility and have anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antibacterial properties. They are also considered to be nerve soothing and antipyretic. Studies have shown that they can help reduce nausea and pregnancy nausea and help relieve migraines.
• The gingerol, which gives a spicy character to the ginger root, has been found to be effective against E.coli-induced diarrhea, especially in children.
• The root of the herb is low in calories, but is a rich source of many essential nutrients and vitamins, such as pyridoxine (Vitamin B-6), pantothenic acid (Vitamin B-5), which are essential for health. It is also a good source of minerals such as potassium, manganese, copper, and magnesium.
• Potassium is an important component of cells and body fluids, which helps control heart rate and blood pressure.
