Jengibre, or ginger, is a flowering plant whose root is widely used as a spice and for its medicinal properties. Originating in Southeast Asia, this aromatic ingredient features prominently in Asian, Indian, and Middle Eastern cuisines. Packed with bioactive compounds like gingerol, it boasts potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Ginger aids digestion, alleviates nausea, and may help reduce muscle pain and soreness. It's also known to support immune function and improve blood sugar regulation. Nutritionally, it’s low in calories but rich in vitamins and minerals such as vitamin B6, magnesium, and potassium. While generally safe in moderate amounts, excessive consumption may lead to mild digestive discomfort. Whether fresh, powdered, or candied, jengibre is a versatile addition to dishes, teas, and wellness routines, offering both flavor and health benefits in every use.
