INFORMATION: Turmeric and ginger are rhizomes that have been consumed for thousands of years. According to the National Library of Medicine, ginger has its origins in ancient China and India, where it was used as both a spice and a medicine. It was long considered an herbal remedy for motion sickness, nausea, pain and digestive distress. From there, it spread throughout Asia and on to Europe and is now a household staple for many. Turmeric has also been historically grown in southeast Asia, with India still being the primary producer. Both foods come from the part of the plant called the rhizome, a stem that grows underground and produces shoots off its sides, similar to a root system. Both plants grow beautiful flowers above the ground when they are ready to be harvested. Inflammation is the root cause of numerous diseases in the body. Heart disease, diabetes, stress and joint pain (amongst others) can all be caused by inflammation in the body. Individually, ginger and turmeric both have impressive anti-inflammatory benefits. The compound in ginger, called gingerol, is responsible for its pungent flavor and many of its protective properties. There are several types of gingerol and other compounds in ginger that have been found to improve inflammatory conditions from a common cold to inflammatory bowel disease. A 2022 study in Frontiers in Pharmacology found that a compound in ginger called 6-shogaol was responsible for inhibiting inflammation in the cells of blood vessels. Being from the same family of plants, turmeric is no exception. Curcumin is, again, center-stage when it comes to anti-inflammation. A 2021 review in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture cites study after study that shows all the various benefits of curcumin, including its amazing anti-inflammatory properties. Like many classic food pairings, ginger and turmeric truly are better together. A 2022 study in the journal Molecules goes into depth about how the chemical compounds in both ginger and turmeric work to reduce inflammation in the body. These study authors state that because inflammation is a major contributing factor in many chronic diseases, including heart disease, diabetes, cancer and neuro-degenerative diseases, they recommend combining ginger and turmeric for maximal benefits. *** These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration .
