生姜是一种用途极其广泛的配料。从鱼到沙拉再到牛肉，几乎每样东西都很配。正如食品科学与营养学2019年的一项研究所指出的，生姜中的多酚可能有助于预防某些类型的癌症。他们的发现在最近发表在营养学和癌症等杂志上的其他研究中得到了回应。这些研究发现，多酚可能有助于预防或减少癌症对人体DNA的损害。这项研究仍处于早期阶段，但它是未来癌症治疗的一个有希望的途径。
As the same Food Science and Nutrition study noted, ginger has been used for centuries in a variety of medications. The study found that a daily dose of 1500 mg of ginger could be useful against nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, while not posing a risk for side effects. Although ginger may be able to help prevent cancer and treat nausea, surprisingly, it may worsen other conditions.
正如同一项食品科学和营养学研究所指出的，生姜已被用于多种药物中数百年。研究发现，每天服用1500毫克生姜有助于预防怀孕期间的恶心和呕吐，同时不会产生副作用。虽然生姜可能有助于预防癌症和治疗恶心，但令人惊讶的是，它可能会使其他疾病恶化。
A 2020 medical review on ginger root found that certain doses of ginger can actually make certain conditions worse. The review noted that high doses of the root at 6 grams daily (2 grams more than the FDA-approved daily amount) can actually exacerbate heartburn, GI reflux, or diarrhea. That is roughly equivalent to a teaspoon of straight ginger, an amount most people aren't likely to ingest in one sitting.
一份2020年关于生姜根的医学评论发现，一定剂量的生姜实际上会使某些情况恶化。该评论指出，每天6克的高剂量(比FDA批准的每日剂量多2克)实际上会加剧胃灼热、胃肠道反流或腹泻。这大约相当于一茶匙的生姜，大多数人不太可能一次吃下这么多。
Small doses of ginger, and throughout the day, may be the key in alleviating heartburn, along with easing swelling or preventing muscle pain, according to Healthline. While minor side effects include bloating or gassiness, ginger may still help alleviate heartburn, which is actually a symptom of acid reflux, per Huffpost. Aside from taking ingesting it raw (shredded or diced, for example), ginger can be ingested in capsule, powder, oil, or even tea form (via Healthline).
根据Healthline的说法，每天服用小剂量的生姜，可能是缓解胃灼热、消肿或防止肌肉疼痛的关键。虽然生姜有轻微的副作用，包括腹胀或胀气，但它仍然有助于缓解胃灼热，这实际上是胃酸回流的一种症状。除了生吃(例如切碎或切丁)，生姜还可以被制成胶囊、粉末、生油，甚至是茶(通过Healthline)。
