Traditionally used to relieve colds and stomach problems, ginger is rich in inflammation-fighting compounds called gingerols which some experts believe may hold promise in fighting some cancers and reducing arthritis pain. In one study, people who took ginger capsules daily for *1 days reported *5 percent less muscle pain when they performed exercises designed to strain their muscles (compared with a similar group taking placebo capsules). Another study found that ginger extract injections helped relieve osteoarthritis pain. And ginger’s reputation as a stomach soother seems well-deserved: studies show ginger extracts can help reduce nausea caused by morning sickness or following surgery or chemotherapy, though it’s less effective for motion sickness.
