Ginger supports a healthy lymph system, improves immune function and the removal of toxins such as when we sweat (hence why sauna’s and exercise are so invaluable when it comes to supporting detoxification). Additionally, Ginger is a potent antioxidant and free radical scavenger, enhancing SOD and GPx, and supports both phases of liver detoxification.
In mice studies, Ginger was shown to induce GST and Nrf2 transcription factors and neutralises lipid peroxidation in hepatocytes.
