===What NativeRemedies says about Ginger===
Ginger (Zingiber officinalis) is an herb with a long history of use in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. Modern research has investigated its effectiveness in supporting digestive juices and healthy digestion. Furthermore, in animal studies this herb has been investigated for its ability to support the entire gastric system and as an excellent digestive tonic. (al-Yahya MA, Rafatullah S, Mossa JS, et al. "Gastro-protective activity of ginger in albino rats". Am J Chinese Med 1989;17:51–6). (Gonlachanvit, S., Chen, Y. H., Hasler, W. L., Sun, W. M., and Owyang, C. "Ginger reduces hyperglycemia-evoked gastric dysrhythmias in healthy humans: possible role of endogenous prostaglandins." J.Pharmacol.Exp.Ther. 2003;307(3):1098-1103).
