Ginger
stimulates stomach movement
The effect of a ginger rhizome extract ( 2 x
100mg) was studied on twelve healthy volunteers. Measuring liquid and gas
movement in the stomach, the researchers were able to show that the
digestive process was significantly improved by the ginger.
The
study demonstrated that taking ginger supplements orally improves the
movement of the gastrointestinal tract both in the fasting state as well
as after a normal meal. Micklefield
