Experts talk about the effects of ginger water

Dr. Manvi Lohia, a nutritionist working at Ekaanta Health Care Center, Haridwar (India), said gingerol, the active ingredient of ginger, acts as a catalyst for digestive enzymes, enhancing the breakdown and absorption of nutrients.

Two experts, Alpa Momaya, head of nutrition, Healthify (India) and Dr. Dilip Gude, senior consultant, Yashoda Hospital, Hyderabad (India), also agree with Dr. Lohia that ginger water has many benefits, especially for the digestive system. It can help alleviate digestive problems and nausea. It can also have a soothing effect on the stomach and help relieve stomach pain.

Dr. Gude adds that ginger can also improve the spasmodic symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome and acid-induced stomach ulcers.

When is the best time to drink ginger water?

Drinking ginger water in the morning on an empty stomach is not just a trend but has been practiced since ancient times to improve digestion, says Dr. Lohia.

Ginger water has many benefits, especially for the digestive system.

Dr. Lohia cites a review in the American medical journal American Family Physician that demonstrated the effectiveness of ginger in reducing nausea caused by chemotherapy. She said that drinking ginger water in the morning on an empty stomach is best. The reason is that this can amplify the effects of ginger, helping the compounds in ginger to have a more direct effect on the intestinal mucosa. It is like waking up the intestines in the morning, facilitating the digestive process during the day, according to the Indian Express .

Dr. Lohia says the antioxidant power of ginger water on an empty stomach may be particularly powerful because it interacts directly with the gut lining, potentially providing the first line of defense against the onslaught of toxins and stressors during the day.
