Ginger and her cousin Turmeric are proud members of the zingiberaceae family and grow in sub-tropical, volcanic soils in the southern hemispheres. The plant is thought to have originated in tropical Asia and is widely cultivated in the Caribbean and Africa. All cultures report similar uses of this plant. It has been used as a favorite “diffusive” circulatory stimulant and heating agent; calming nausea, removing phlegm or catarrh in a wet cough. It has also been used to support a healthy inflammatory response. Ginger is also widely used for motion sickness. Ginger is one of the most widely consumed aromatic spices on the planet.*Marshmallow root is native to Europe and parts of Asia and is part of the Malvaceae family. The garden varieties are called HollyHocks. The whole plant contains a tacky, slimy substance known as mucilage but the root of 2-3 year old plants contains the highest percentage, older woody roots were considered “valueless”. The root was dried, sliced into discs sold and then powdered to support healthy gastrointestinal function where inflammation and irritation were present. It was used to support all mucosal membranes especially in the bronchioles, mouth, and intestines. It has also been used as an antiputrifaecant, which means to help aid the removal of putrifying wastes from the intestines. In the authors experience it has proven effective given powdered in warm water to support gentle passing of urinary calculi.*

Allergic Response , Childhood Immune Health , Immune Deficiency , Immune Impairment , Immune System Support , Immunodeficiency , Respiratory Vitality , Seasonal Respiratory Issues , Sneezing Immune System , Mucous Membranes , Respiration , Respiratory , Upper Respiratory Ginger contains hundreds of chemical components. The highest percentages of chemicals are the volatile oils (camphene, phellandrene, zingiberine, zingiberol, eucalyptol, citral, borneol, and linalol) and the phenolic compounds (gingerol, zingerone, shogaols) and resins. The fresh rhizome is less hot and contains more of the flavor components such as triterpenoids and volatile oils which act on the peripheries of the body. The dried rhizome is quite hot from its concentration of pungent nonvolatile compounds known as gingerols and acts centrally to dispel what are referred to in Traditional Chinese Medicine as “Cold-Wind” conditions. Ginger has been shown in numerous clinical trials to work as well as or better than Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory medicines without the adverse events reported such as gastric mucosal irritation and ulceration. It is thought that Ginger promotes normal production of Thromboxanes and Leukotrienes which would explain its action on the immune system as well as its ability to promote healthy circulation and inflammatory responses. Numerous studies used dried powdered ginger and fresh ginger and had very positive results with humans. Powdered dried ginger root demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects in 56 patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, or mysositis (muscle inflammation) when taken daily in one to two gram amounts. Pain was moderately or markedly reduced by 75% in all three categories of patients. (see references).*Marshmallow root is high in mucilage which has unfortunately not been the focus of much pharmacological research. With gastrointestinal disorders so common in the United States and the ability of this substance to provide soothing support there more focus should be directed to this plant. There have been some studies conducted on the effect of this plant in combination with others to support healthy respiratory function while challenged with a cough.*
