Capsule: It is made ofpowdered ginger and has reduced action due to the way of absorption. Usually, this  Way of Consuming Ginger  is indicated by professionals when the patient needs to maintain a constant consumption, guaranteeing minimum daily doses, that is, with the medicinal purpose.

Pasta:  Another way to consume ginger  is in paste and to prepare it in paste form, simply beat the ginger “in natura” with salt , fry it with 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil and add a handful of salt . If desired, prepare with 2 cloves of garlic . The benefits of the paste are the same as in the raw form, that is, it is rich in bioactive components and has anti-inflammatory effects. The ideal is to consume 1 spoon (dessert) as a seasoning .

Ginger Water: Rich in Magnesium , Potassium , Folate and Vitamin B6 , ginger water, like raw root, increases caloric expenditure by more than 10%. To obtain it, leave a glass (200ml) of water in the fridge with two slices of Ginger overnight. Then just strain and drink.

Flour or Powder: Also known as “powder”, Ginger flour has the same benefits as the raw root and can be added to juices and even compose homemade seasonings for the preparation of meat, fish or chicken . To ensure its good use, it is essential to pay attention to the amount of the product. In addition, many brands mix cornstarchinto the powdered ginger preparation, and this mixture greatly reduces the amount of active components present in the preparation.

Raw: In its “original” form, Ginger is rich in bioactive components. It also has anti-inflammatory effects that inhibit pain, inflammation, prevent the destruction of joint tissues and can even help with weight loss .

In addition, since obesity is directly linked to the release of inflammatory substances in the body, ginger prevents the release of such substances and prevents weight gain. In addition, it is an aid against seasickness and acts in the prevention of prostate , colon and pancreas cancer.

Tea: Ginger tea is also a great way to consume ginger ! As you’ve already seen, it can be made with 1 tablespoon offlaked ginger and 300ml of filtered water. Let the water boil for 15 minutes. The benefits are the same as the raw root”, explains nutritionist Bruna Quaglio.
