Not a single drug can rival the power of ginger. How could a spice adored world-wide for its lively flavour conceivably revolutionise medicine as we know it today? Inspired by ginger's 5000-year history, Paul Schulick began a revealing investigation that ultimately linked the claims of the ancient herbals to the remarkable and extensive findings of international medical research. Supported by hundreds of scientific references, the reader is led to discover the extraordinary personal and social benefits of using ginger.

Remarkable Compilation!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ginger: Common Spice and Wonder Drug (Paperback)
A remarkable compilation of detailed information on the generous ginger plant, this book should answer every question you ever had on ginger's power over an amazing number of ailments. The author is the founder of a Brattleboro, Vermont herbal supplement company called New Chapter, whose Ginger Wonder Syrup is a versatile product. A work with over 30 pages of references, as well as 13 pages on the chemical makeup of ginger alone, this is one for your herb-skeptical friends.
