Hi NutritionFacts, hi Dr. Greger! I would love if you made an update of new research about IBS and nutritional tips to deal with IBS, without relying on the FODMAP diet, which is very restrictive and can't be applied on the long term. Thank you SO much.
Is fresh ginger any better than something like Ginger Gravol (sold in Canada)?
@nutritionfacts.org what about postpartum bleeding? Would it be beneficial to consume just prior to birth and during post part to reduce the amount of bleeding?
Question! If you take it in food, does it work the same? Or do you take it directly
I've been eating half a teaspoon of powdered ginger most days for about a year. I just love it in my cooking.
If karma were money, Dr Gregor would be the Waltons. Keep up the good fight, Dr.!
Ginger of course is a cousin to the turmeric root and they are synergistically anti-inflammatory when used in combination.
Is there medicinal powdered ginger or does the seasoning at the grocery store work?
Oh my gosh. You have no idea how much I love this information, I recently began having cramp pains that made me pass out cause of how severe they were, I have even become terrified of my periods. I am so dropping all those pills I'm taking and doing ginger. Thank you so much.
Ginger's efficacy has been well known for thousands of years in the traditional chinese medicine scene. It's a wonderful food that has many medicinal properties!
Ginger does NOT work for migraine, in my experience. I've tried it a few times in the hope that it might help, to no avail.
Advocating the use of a herb because it's equally as effective as a placebo? Bizarre.
Chronic nausea and debilitating migraine sufferer here (Thanks to food poisoning). I took ginger supplements for months. Did absolutely nothing. Still I suffer all day and everyday. Blood tests normal, Doctors offer no help.
what are the differences between all the health benefits of Garlic vs Ginger?

both are very high in combating inflammation and probably anti cancer too.
Ginger is so powerful great message
If you are on blood thinners, consult a doctor before taking ginger supplements.
i'm going to try during my periods, mine are unbearable. i know it's not related but are there any herbs and such that can help with overactive bladder?
Do you have any information/advice about not menstruating or irregular menstruation ?
No offence Dr greger, but I think you could improve your delivery, especially towards the end. Can't you do a second take or are you THAT busy?
I have a similar question..... So yes to benefits of powdered ginger - Would fresh grated ginger also work? I would love to continue feeling superior drinking my loose leaf green tea with fresh grated turmeric and ginger.
