Does Ginger do anything for you? I keep hearing about its benefiting attributes.

Have you tried it? In which form? Has it helped you?
Posted 9/20/2012 12:50 AM (GMT 0)
Yeah, I tried and still drink Ginger Ale. Benefits from Ginger ale? Well, it tastes good.

Which form?

Liquid bubbly form.

Soft drinks always help me. They make me feel mentally good. They just do.

It's supposed to help with digestion and can help with nausea.

I drink tea (made with fresh ginger) occasionally and never have ill effects, but don't think it helps with any of my UC symptoms.

Well, yes I was wondering if it helps with UC.

I am always eating ginger but not for medical benefits, just because I enjoy it. I tried taking ginger pills a long time ago when I was flaring and I saw no improvement in my condition.

the kind of pickled ginger you get with sushi is great stuff - it seems to soothe my UC.
Of course we are all different, so please post your success stories (or not ) here

It helps with nausea, and I think it helps with inflammation. I take a capsule each day, eat food with fresh ginger whenever possible, and sometimes drink a warm tumeric ginger tea. It seems to provide reduced symptoms.

I take it in pill form. It helps with my digestion.
