The Ancient History of Ginger & Its Uses in Ayurveda
Ginger is a member of a plant family that includes cardamom and turmeric. Its spicy aroma is mainly due to the presence of ketones, especially the gingerols, which appear to be the primary component of ginger. It is believed that ginger root is used as a tonic for 5000 years to treat many ailments, and this plant is now cultivated throughout the humid tropics, with India being the largest producer. As per Ayurveda, ginger is known as “universal medicine.” Referred to as ardrakam or shuntha in Sanskrit, ginger is pungent, while at the same time sweet and warming. It’s the perfect antidote for chill and damp.
