A recent article published by Medical News Today discusses study at the University of Georgia in which was found that the use of Ginger Root on a daily basis helps to reduce inflammation related to exercise by 25 percent. Considering the fact that often Advil, Motrin, and Aleve are often used for this purpose, Ginger provides a healthy alternative.
The use of Ginger for the reduction of inflammation has been touted for a long time, but prior to this most recent human study, the benefits have only been demonstrated in laboratory rats.
If, for example, a person suffers from back pain, joint pain, or muscle pain after exercise, a steady dose of at least 2 grams of ginger every day will possibly help to reduce symptoms by as much as 25 percent. The study found that it didn't matter if the ginger was heat treated or raw.
