Ginger root Juice Diet Details

I eat a slice of raw ginger root every morning and pop a ginger tea bag in my water through the day.

I talked to a Pakistani ayurvedic doctor that I trust and he told me that 1 tsp per day for a tea would be way too much and it would lead to a wrinkly, dry skin after some time. He suggested using some slices of fresh ginger for a tea instead. It is milder and doesn’t have the same negative effects.

How many doctors do you hear about recommending ginger to their patients?

I tried this last week and it worked wonders! It decreased my cramp pain tremendously and it looks like it decreased my cycle time from 7 days to 5. I’ll definite do this again next month! I’m on this for life!

So how much ginger root daily? I’ve noticed videos when I watch them they never get to the point of how much you should take daily. Rarely they do anyways

I like to put ginger in my vodka -seems to prevent hangovers.

I used to do this, it made my period from 7 days to 3 and the flow less than half what it is. But then i kept getting it every fortnight! So, i stopped, and now it is back with a vengeance. Just a warning i read endometriosis happens from backflow of blood and i’m scared this will cause that, so i am stopping ginger!

Could you grate ginger root and put it in empty capsules and take it as a pill?

In 2009 I suffered from an extreme case of Dyspepsia.
My stomach would burn if I ate any processed foods, particularly refined processed sugar products. I spent hundreds of dollars on antacids before I switched to a whole food diet. Between changing my diet and using Ginger as my antacid medication, I’ve not bought any OTC meds since 2009.

Ginger tea cured my gallbladder problems and cleans the liver.

I eat raw ginger in small little pieces. I love it! Is it ok to eat it that way?

Hi, is the good doctor saying the studies suggest it’s more beneficial to take ginger power than taking fresh ginger juice??

Makes me feel good about the home brewed ginger tea I had last night.  I have been using a lot of ginger.  For some reason I didn’t like the spice aisle ginger, but I genuinely love fresh ginger.

The ginger information in this video is important, but I find the tone and presentation of the narrator to be obnoxious and degrades the essence of the message.

I enjoy ginger and cinnamon,and have heard about their health benefits. I have also heard how they, specifically cinnamon, can act as an antimicrobial substance….. So my question is what does ginger or cinnamon and their antimicrobial properties do to the necessary gut bacteria?

Such generous wonderful information, as always! Am wondering is a good quality ginger essential oil may behave similarly?

ty Dr Axe what do you say could assist with quit smoking….least expensive and easy ty Mikkayla

Just got inspired to cut off and eat some fresh ginger…spicy��

Doctor Greger what do you think about this research on low HDL and cognitive impairment? Would be very helpful if you could make a video on this subject. I have HDL at 31mg/dl and my doctor told me I need to raise it for Dementia prevention. My total Cholesterol is 97md/dl and my LDL is 46 mg/dl. I saw this research and I am a little worried now. I hope you will find the time to have a look at it and reply. Thank you.

Dr. Greger, your speaking voice is reaching cartoonish levels. You’re in danger of becoming the HCbailly of nutrition.

So powder is more beneficial than fresh? Am I misunderstanding? Always thought fresh is better for everything…

I have lived in India and have good experience with Siddha medicine. My Dr. used to always say don’t believe hearsay that fresh amla is better than dried, or fresh ginger is better than dried powder. Each one has its own effect. Even sugar taken in different sizes has different effect on the body according to him. Anyways, I never took it seriously and always used to think a fresh version of the product is better than dried. Today I saw in this video how dried ginger called Sukku in Siddha has some compounds that fresh ginger misses! And it was a revelation for me! Sukku is specifically used to treat obesity and diseases of the blood vessels in Siddha, not fresh Ginger which is used more for digestive and muscle-skeleton diseases.

Yes Traditional Chinese medicine do use ginger together with many other different herbs. But in more recent times, a Chinese physician incorporated ginger as the main medicine in his therapy. He has develop such a simplistic effective therapy system that free therapy centers appear all over Asia started by people who watch and learn the methods online.

One of the student even brought the therapy to Africa and there are now dozens of centers there.

Google “Yuan Shi Dian”

I feel like i sort of missed the part about dried vs fresh. Did that make a difference?

My period is coming really soon. Gotta go to the store and pick up some ginger now 😉

How do you respond to this current scientific data? http://raypeat.com/articles/articles/cholesterol-longevity.shtml

I had a friend of mine that drank varnish and died of a fine shine

I work in a restaurant supply / grocery store. the store I’m at has the busiest produce of most of our stores. Because we’re so close to Microsoft headquarters we have a lot of out of country workers many of them are Indian, we have so many Indian restaurants in our area many are vegetarian.

The point I’m getting at is I see what the people who are not overweight purchase, that seem to be healthy.

Ginger, garlic, various green vegetables, peppers, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, spinach and mustard seed, lots of basmati rice, etc.

Recently, my girlfriend had a urge to have some Taco Bell and I saw one Indian familiy going down the poor food choice path. They were not overweight and hopefully they only go there once in a blue moon.

My girlfriend has Crohn’s disease and she had 6inches of her bowels removed 2 years ago, and sometimes nothing tastes good and she needs to have some bad stuff.

All this video did was reaffirm the fact that gingerols and other active constituents are powerful anti-inflammatories that alleviate numerous inflammed pathways in the body, one being the liver.

is there a difference between fresh ginger and ginger powder?

I’ m checking my ginger tea right now ta see if it’s shinee!

There turns out to be a 70’s topless cop movie on utube entitled ‘Ginger” very racy. 8)

Buy fresh ginger root (preferably organic due to where it is grown), wash but don’t peel. Rough chop. Grind in high speed blender. Freeze in teaspoon or tablespoon sized pats. Voila no more wasted ginger. Can be used in drinks, teas, sauces, and marinades. Ginger is a miracle.

Ótimas informações. A tradução facilita o entendimento do vídeo!

Very good video, turmeric, ginger and other herbs have been widely used in the science of Ayurveda of india from ages. These things work wonders

i drink combination ginger-cloves-coriander, voila no more period cramps. I make it like infused water and drink it after 6 hours

I started a ginger tea smoothie before bed for weight loss but I had a pain in my knee that I rub every night for 3 years and it just disappear so that was a great bonus next to my 24lbs weight loss. Ginger is great

Handsome guy. He looks so healthy. I’m eating raw ginger as we speak

Ginger improves circulation. Making you warmer. Increasing temp

Great to hear. Are we better off with ginger powder, or are the capsules twice a day good enough?

Does eating raw ginger in the morning break the fast?

I had an uncle who had a throat cyst they were going to have to do surgery on. There were going drill a hole to attach a tube from his throat to his stomach to feed him. He said hell no. Went to a natural path. They recommended ginger mixed in young coconut juice. His irritating cough is gone, and his cysts is decreasing in pain and size. It is a super food.

If I drink the Lemon, Apple cider vinegar,Cayenne pepper concoction 1st thing in the am, is it okay to drink this ginger concoction in the pm before bed?

my stomach actually hurts really bad after I trink ginger Tea. I always get stomach problems from ginger

No period cramps!!! I’m in! Going to the store right now and get some ginger!

ah ginger is a staple in my diet, along w cinammon I prob drink it 5-6x a day w my tea. Its amazing for when you’re on your period as well.

I use ginger in my veggie curries and also in my milk tea, thanks for this valuable information

I always use ginger and is very good, thanks for the information

Ginger really helped my wife with morning sickness when she was pregnant.

I started drinking the powdered ginger in hot water daily. It’s quite strong so I do one half teaspoon in hot water twice a day.

So ginger powder you say, I prefer my ginger fresh, but I guess I could look into getting some powder

What is with this 10 year old video getting spammed like this lol thank you for your wisdom on the YouTube forums

Careful with this narrator’s analysis of the reports. These articles look scientific, and they may very well be, but articles published in Iranian and Persian biochemistry journals are not well read in the West. Now, these studies may have been done well, but if they are as important as the narrator claims, then I ask why were not the reports published in more high-impact journals? Furthermore, are these journals even peer-reviewed? I don’t know, because I have never read anything from the journals the narrator has selected. Still, just because I have not read anything from them, does not mean that the reports the narrator quotes are not valid. However, I can point out some flaws in Dr Greger’s analysis and reading of the results presented in these reports. First, what biological significance is there to 110 mg/dL blood glucose versus 104 mg/dL blood glucose without or with a cup of ginger tea with white bread? I believe any diabetic could easily handle a blood glucose concentration of 110 mg/dL. That’s practically a normal fasting value. So, the doctor’s conclusion there that a cup of ginger tea with white bread is better than a cup of water with white bread does not compute. Second, the doctor mentions LDL-cholesterol was improved when ginger was ingested, but LDL-cholesterol is not anymore associated with pathological cardiovascular events. It is inflammation that is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular disease, not cholesterol. Third, Dr Greger states the authors claim CRP levels drop by half after consuming ginger for 12 weeks. But, look at the errors associated with the measures. Those means are not significantly different from each other with errors like these. In fact, look at the “Before” group: 5.2 ± 5.4!! That’s a lot of variation. And fourth, fasting blood glucose concentration and A1C get worse in the control group as the study progresses. Something is strange about the study design. There should not be this drift in both variables. Be careful of persons who sound right, but who are not making proper conclusions from the data. Also, it must first be established that the experiments and results are credible. —R Bennett PhD.

How do I prevent blood sugar from becoming TOO low taking ginger (and/or other natural things that lower blood sugar) and metformin medication for t2 diabetes? If the answer is to stop taking the medication, I’m afraid my doctor won’t help me to do that in the slightest, and then I’d worry about my sugar getting too high… I guess all I can do is monitor It and try to wing it and do what seems best?

You can get ginger powder at Indian grocery stores much cheaper than regular grocery stores. Turmeric too

Can you do a video on effects of nutrition on pyelonephritis?

That’s awesome, I love ginger. Soy really helped me. When I first went vegan I wasn’t eating any soy products, my cramps went when I started drinking soy milk and eating soy ice cream. Maybe it was to do with hormonal imbalance? I’m just guessing, no idea.

I mince 1 tsp up super small and chug it down with my morning wake up drink; 2 Tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar, 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice and 12oz water. Put it in a blender with 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Chug it down through a straw. I make a yuck face, then go brush my teeth. Sucks but it works.

wow this is he answer to my monthly problem, haha. What amazed me more is that in the second month the pain dropped significantly compared to the first month, which means, probably, that the pain can disappear completely in the future, if of course, ground ginger is administrated in the known doses and for a longer period of time. Can it be replace by fresh ginger, though? I find that the ground ginger I buy is just a normal spice and doesn’t have the health benefits it should have if it was organic, etc.. so maybe fresh is a better option? I will gladly participate in a study like this, but no placebo for me��

At 3:17 why was the baseline for the ginger group significantly higher than the baseline for placebo?

I may not be doing the daily dozen—but I’m a vegan—but thanks to you, Dr. Greger, I drink vinegar every day, I eat 1/2 or a whole cup of beans a day, and now I’m doing the ginger tea regimen.

Hey Dr Axe…good to see modern docs are following Ancient Indian Ayurvedic Medicine.BTW I trained as a MD. Great advice.

I thought you were a man and you started speaking. Omg. You can wear earrings to balance your masculinity.

I have gastritis which causes nausea every morning, and the only things that help are ginger and marijuana. I mix a teaspoon of ginger powder and put it in a glass of water, and it really helps settle the acidic feeling in my stomach

Gorgeous woman, beautiful smile, incredible teeth. I didn’t hear a thing she said…

i mix it with 1/2 a green apple and water like a smoothie with the nutribullet and  around 20 grams of ginger or more and what a pick-up in the morning or when i can make it. its great with a alkaline water of 8-9 ph level

GINGER has helped my mom with her pain and it has helped me with my bloating. It is basicaly like putting a needle in a balloon…It just goes down right away. Ginger is a miricle root.

I have had horrible menstrual cramps. They come every 2 hrs and last for about 20mins. Basically debilitating pain, at work, in route, at home. Just terrible. I have literally called out of work and even left work early due to the pain.

My level of painful menstrual cramps were at about an 8. I would experience cramps, which caused hot flashes, sweating, nausea, and at times, vomiting.

I was taking 800mg of IBUPROFEN every 2 hrs and still in agonizing pain. The pain would start, I’d take the ibuprofen and I swear by the time it kicked in the pain was gone. But by the time the pain came back, the medicine had wore off.

I added less than a tablespoon of raw gjnger to my smoothies just for taste, and surprisingly I noticed that I didn’t have painful menstrual cramps. The next month I didn’t have any smoothies with ginger and the pain returned.

. But I learned that ginger is Phenomenal and it has changed my life! I eat raw ginger everyday and I have noticed a drastic decrease in menstrual cramps. I still have cramps, but no pain, just light pressure. No nausea, hot flashes, sweating, or vomiting. I am 100% confident that ginger will completely stop painful menstrual cramps or significantly reduce them.

Thanks a lot for seeing things through the eyes of a woman being a guy doesn’t necessarily mean being blind to women’s issues (tell that to some male gynecologists… I’ll never let one of those touch me again!)

Fresh is better. Mash a big tuber of ginger root. Boil with some water for abt an hour. Sip throughout the day. Add yr own flavours if �� Drinking it plain is not yr thing.

Beaker no have diabetes but very much would like to take metformin (+nmn). Ginger and cinnamon r nice but not enough to live 4ever

I ate about 1/3 tbsp of it yesterday. �� My bf is sick and the recipe called for 1 tbsp. It was so great until I was about half done with my bowl where it got real gross real quick.

That is disappointing, I always enjoy a shot of varnish upon retiring *)

I use lots (if I had to guess like 30 grams or more? ) of fresh ginger root in my daily smoothies….what’s too much ginger to consume?

Don’t drink varnish….good advice!:)

Thankyou doctor that is a very helpful info for all women ������

I shall recommend ginger ro liberals for their womenstrual cramps.

Ginger has worked wonders. It has made me put down the ibuprofen. I’ll never go back.

Sign me up for that study. Now find one for middle aged woman and flooding periods.

This is true. I watched a video from Dr. McGregor a while back with similar info and I decide it to… “put it to the test”!!!
This really works. And if you keep doing it month after month it helps even more, however, I wish there was something that would eliminate the pain. Ginger helps but does not eliminate the discontford.

Wouldn’t “powdered toast” capsules cause inflammation in some people? And then potentially increase their pain level? I think they should have used a different placebo pill in the study.

ive just started taking fresh ginger, i eat a piece about tablet size raw”neat”everyday,
is that ok???
also what is shelf life of fresh ginger??
an what is the best way to store it??

Not to mention it works great for bloat! My tummy always goes down when I start drinking ginger tea!

Yeah, yeah, just an other Excellent report by the NutritionFacts.org group headed by Dr. Greger!! Beautiful & Magnificat!!:-):-)

After going whole plant vegan, I don’t even get cramps anymore.

Here’s how I do it. Chop up a chunk of ginger, drop it in a glass with just a small amount of water and swallow it like you would a handful of pills or a shot of alcohol. Easy peezy.
You can even use some sort of flavored water to make it even easier.

I saw a recipe of boiling ginger and drinking the water of it (500 ml) everyday will help get rid of fat in the liver. How true is that? And is it OK to have that amount of ginger everyday on an empty stomach?

What a wonderful dr really you great thank you so much for you sharing detail about ginger ❤❤❤
