Ginger root is an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and digestive superfood. The spice is recommended as a natural medicine for many physical ailments due to its nutrients and health-supporting phytochemicals.<\/p>\n
When To Avoid Ginger Root<\/p>\n
1. Blood Disorders<\/p>\n
Ginger root is a blood anti-coagulant that promotes circulation. In the case of some blood conditions like hemophilia (in which blood coagulation does not occur properly), thinner blood can exacerbate the condition, making a small cut into a possibly life-threatening hemorrhage.<\/p>\n
Beneficial due to exactly these effects for cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and high cholesterol, it\u2019s best to avoid ginger if you have a blood condition without discussing it first with your healthcare provider.<\/p>\n
2. Taking Prescription Medications<\/p>\n
A pharmaceutical is formulated to address a specific symptom and is designed to work in a certain way in the body. Drugs come with lists of warnings and potential side effects.<\/p>\n
Because ginger root has medicinal properties, some pharmaceuticals don\u2019t mix well with it. So to prevent any risks, side-effects, read the warnings and inform yourself as much as you can for your own safety.<\/p>\n
Ginger is a natural blood thinner and reduces blood pressure; it also regulates blood sugar (1). Taken together with medication that is designed to do the same can mean too much of a good thing. Hence, ginger should not be taken with anticoagulants, beta blockers, aspirin, or insulin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
