The harm of drinking ginger powder

Ginger powder is made from processed raw ginger. Everyone is quite familiar with raw ginger. When ginger is made into powder, it is more convenient to eat. Especially some women can carry ginger powder with them during menstruation and can brew it at any time. It can be used for direct brewing or added to some cold dishes. Eating ginger powder is still very good for the body, but you must pay attention to the amount when eating it.

The dangers of drinking ginger powder

No harm

Ginger is pungent and warm in nature. It is good at dispersing wind and cold, resolving phlegm and relieving cough. It can also warm the middle and stop vomiting, and detoxify. It is often used clinically to treat symptoms such as exogenous wind-cold and stomach cold vomiting. The ancients called it the "holy medicine for vomiting." The ginger roasting method takes advantage of the characteristics of ginger and uses ginger juice as an auxiliary material to prepare the medicine to enhance the medicine's effects of removing phlegm and relieving cough, relieving adverse reactions and stopping vomiting, and reduce its toxic side effects. For example, raw bamboo shavings are good at clearing away heat and resolving phlegm, and roasting them with ginger can enhance their effects in relieving adverse reactions and stopping vomiting; Magnolia officinalis is spicy and irritating to the throat, and roasting them with ginger can eliminate its side effects of irritating the throat and enhance its effects in soothing the stomach; roasting coptis chinensis with ginger can alleviate its overly bitter and cold nature and is good at treating stomach heat and vomiting.
