❌REDUCES PERIOD/MENSTRUAL PAIN:⁣⁣
Ginger’s effectiveness in dysmenorrhea has been observed in six clinical trials. Evidence regarding its overall effectiveness, at different doses, in significantly reducing pain when compared with a placebo was elucidated.  In one of these trials, the tested daily dose was quite low—150 mg per day of ginger powder, taken for five consecutive days—and still there was a reduction of both severity and duration of pain in the test group (Santos Braga et al., 2019).⁣⁣
