GINGER POWDER OLA BIO ........ the natural sedative  Ginger root (often called ginger even in Greece) is a popular herb, known for its healing properties as well as its culinary uses. It is the underground rhizome of a small plant belonging to the Zingiberaceae family, genus: Zingiber. The scientific name is: Zingiber officinale. Ginger has been used since ancient times for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties and its contribution to relieving stomach gas.

It contains many components associated with health benefits (essential oils), such as zingiberene, gingerol, shogaol, paradol, and small amounts of beta-phellandrene, cineole, and citral. Gingerols contribute to improving intestinal motility and have anti-inflammatory, sedative (analgesic), and antibacterial properties. They are also considered nerve-soothing and fever-reducing. Studies have shown that they can help reduce nausea and pregnancy-related nausea, as well as help alleviate migraines.

Gingerol, which gives the ginger root its spicy character, has been found to be effective against diarrhea caused by E. coli, particularly in children. The root of the herb is low in calories but is a rich source of many essential nutrients and vitamins, such as pyridoxine (vitamin B-6), pantothenic acid (vitamin B-5), which are essential for health. It is also a good source of minerals like potassium, manganese, copper, and magnesium.

Potassium is an important component of cells and bodily fluids, helping control heart rate and blood pressure.
