NOW Ginger Root Extract 250mg

Digestive and anti-inflammatory support. This provides a solid starting dose of gingerols, which are the active compounds that do the heavy lifting. It is standardized to 5%, which is exactly what you want to see in a quality extract. You will likely need two capsules to match the higher doses used in clinical studies for joint pain, but it is great for nausea.
