Ginger: The miraculous root
Ginger is known for its anti-inflammatory and digestive properties. It contains bioactive compounds, such as gingerol, that help relax the muscles of the gastrointestinal tract and relieve intestinal spasms that often accompany gas buildup. Additionally, ginger helps stimulate the production of digestive enzymes, which facilitates the breakdown of food and prevents excessive gas formation. Ginger infusion can also reduce feelings of bloating and abdominal discomfort.
