I just posted this on the GERD site too and I was wondering if anyone has tried it for their IBS. I hear that it reduces inflammation in the colon and may even prevent colon cancer. I am taking it for the nausea that I seem to always have and I have heard it works for that too. Just curious to see if anyone has tried it and if it helped.

I too have heard ginger root has anti inflamatory properties. I don't take a supplement, but I do buy ginger root and brew my own tea. It's easy. Just cut off a few thin slices of the root, simmer in water for 10 minutes, then strain the tea into your cup. Add a bit of honey to make it sweet if you desire. It does seem to "settle" my stomach for awhile.

I took my first one yesterday after being nauseated and just feeling that terrible cramping for 5 days straight and it actually did help. The nausea and the bloating feeling went away. I will keep my fingers crossed.
