Ginger for Herbal Supplementation "I use ginger root for joint pain from arthritis. Cut 7-8 thin coins of fresh ginger root and placed in 6 cups cold water and brought to a boil for a few minutes. Allowed to cool until able to drink. Strained and drank a cup, refrigerating the rest (about 4 cups left). After drinking this over the next few days, I noticed that my joint pain was much better."

Ginger "I have been doubling over from pain in my lower abdomen every day. I started using fresh grated ginger about 6 weeks ago. I am almost pain free. This week was the first time that I had some pain, 2 days in a row. It is gone again. Here is my recipe: 2 cups grated ginger, 2 quarts of water, 5 cloves, 3 tbsp almond extract, 1/2 cup sugar, more if you prefer. Place it all in a large pot. Bring to a boil. Turn off heat. Cover. Let sit 24 hours on the stove. Strain through a cheesecloth. Place in bottles. Keep refrigerated. How to use: Place some in a glass, like 1/4 up the glass, add water and ice. Enjoy. Keeps 2 to 3 weeks in the refrigerator."

Ginger for Herbal Supplementation "OMG, took one 525 mg ginger root at 4 PM. In severe pain in my lower pelvic area for 13 hours. Steady pain like labor. Drank plenty of water to flush it out. Never again. I’m very sensitive to vitamins anyway."

For Nausea/Vomiting "The most valuable antiemetic I've ever encountered. It is fast-acting, highly effective at reducing nausea and vomiting, and carries no side effects. What more could you ask for?"

Ginger for Herbal Supplementation "Each time I have root ginger grated into boiling water to make a tea, I feel faint, though very relaxed. It wears off after 30 minutes or so."
