News About Ginger
FROM THE NEW CHAPTER LIBRARY
Although well known as a pleasant tasting cooking spice, it
is not so widely known that ginger has been used for
thousands of years, worldwide, for its numerous potent
healing benefits. Ginger is an especially wonderful ally
because its healing benefits are particular to so many of
our daily health concerns. Probably best known as a superb
digestive aid and nausea reliever, ginger also helps heal
ulcers, supports cardiovascular health, reduces pain and
inflammation, and speeds recovery from colds and flu while
reducing fevers. Additionally, the National Cancer Institute
has recently identified ginger as one of the top ten foods
offering the highest levels of anti-cancer activity. Most
importantly, ginger accomplishes all these without the side
effects associated with drugs.
When Paul Schulick, founder and CEO of New Chapter and
master herbalist, began his review of ginger research, both
its breadth and depth amazed him. Ginger’s benefits are so
varied and valuable that Paul regards it as a true “superherb”.
From this research, Paul's best-selling book Ginger: Common
Spice and Wonder Drug was born and with it New Chapter's
ginger products.
New Chapter’s 74-acre organic ginger farm, Luna Nueva, rests
on the edge of the beautiful, pristine Children's Rain
Forest in Costa Rica. Our farm radiates a lushness and
vibrancy that reflects our commitment to environmental
preservation. While establishing a farm of this kind was
challenging, we felt it was essential to the quality of our
products. Most commercial ginger is heavily fumigated, and
we needed a consistent, superior-quality supply of organic
ginger.
