If you aren’t familiar with ginger oil, there’s no better time to get acquainted with this essential oil than right now.

Ginger is a flowering plant in the family Zingiberaceae. Its root is widely used as a spice, and it has been used in folk medicine for thousands of years. The Chinese and Indians have used ginger tonics to treat ailments for over 4,700 years, and it was a priceless commodity during the Roman Empire trade around the coming of Christ because of its medicinal properties.

Over time, ginger was spread across Asia, Africa, Europe and India because of the spice trading business.

Due to its digestive properties, ginger is an integral part of Asian cuisines. Most commonly, it’s added to meals, including meat, because of its ability to aid digestion.

As such, ginger root and ginger essential oil are gaining popularity for their preservation and flavoring capabilities.

Ginger is a herbaceous perennial that grows annual stems about three feet tall. The stems bear narrow, green leaves and yellow flowers.

It is part of the plant family that includes turmeric and cardamom, both exceptionally beneficial to your health and wellness. It has a sweet, spicy, woody and warm scent.

Ginger essential oil is a warming essential oil that works as an antiseptic, laxative, tonic and stimulant.

The health benefits of ginger essential oil are nearly identical to the medicinal health benefits of fresh ginger. In fact, the most potent form of ginger is the essential oil because it contains the highest levels of gingerol.

The essential oil is the best way to use ginger. It can be taken internally to treat health conditions or rubbed topically with a carrier oil on an area of pain.

Today, ginger essential oil is used at home to treat nausea, upset stomach, menstrual disorders, inflammation and respiratory conditions. When used as aromatherapy, it’s also known to bring on feelings of courageousness and self-assurance, which is why it’s known as “the oil of empowerment.”
