Properties and characteristics of ginger - why is it worth using?

Ginger: characteristics and properties

The use of ginger as a form of support for the proper functioning of the body has been practiced for many years. Reading the various characteristics of this plant, one can repeatedly come across the information that the plant is a rich source of numerous active ingredients with a valuable effect on the daily diet. No wonder. In ginger roots you can come across a high content of vitamins, minerals, folic acid and other beneficial substances.

One of the main properties of ginger is the warming effect. Adding to this the effect of the plant on the reduction of swelling (by intensifying the removal of tissue water) and stimulation of the digestive system (e.g. relieving flatulence, better digestion, diastolic effect), it can provide real support during the period of weight loss. Ginger extracts standardized for the presence of essential oils and resin substances (especially gingerol and zingerone) can help to control the correct body weight and facilitate shaping of a slim body shape.

Warming up properties and the elimination of the swelling are important for the structures of the musculoskeletal system. Such a comprehensive action can work well in the context of sports injuries. The damage often favours the development of inflammation, which can lead to the development of painful ailments after time. The inclusion of ginger in the daily diet may also prove beneficial for:

• reducing nausea and increasing appetite,
• valuable influence on the condition and functioning of the blood and cardiovascular system,
• the functioning of the immune system,
• physical activity, concentration and condition of the respiratory system

Characteristics and properties of ginger in the context of dietary supplements

The Olimp Sport Nutrition brand offers products that utilise the valuable properties of ginger. In both cases, the extract from this plant is one of many ingredients that co-create the formulas of the products, with completely different effects and applications. However, each of them has been developed according to a high standard and from high quality ingredients tested in modern laboratories of the Olimp Labs pharmaceutical company.

The first supplement is the Thermo Stim Hardcore fat burner, which is available in a capsule form. The product is a combination of caffeine with highly standardized extracts (e.g. ginger , sinetrol, cayenne pepper, raspberries), which are supplemented with niacin and vitamin C. The supplement was designed for people in the process of slimming down and who want to increase the effectiveness of shaping a slim body.

Flexagen Forte is the second product, which combines standardised plant extracts (including ginger, Boswellia serrata), minerals, vitamin C, glucosamine and collagen. The product is recommended for people seeking support for the condition of the musculoskeletal system and those who are particularly exposed to its regular strain (e.g. obese people, athletes, seniors).
