Ginger is a flowering plant originally from Southeast Asia that is commonly used as a spice and is well-known for its various health benefits. Several of these benefits are described in detail in the four chapters of this book. Chapter One provides knowledge about ginger’s beneficial effects in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. Chapter Two highlights the composition and properties of ginger, oral application, and its future scope in dentistry. Chapter Three includes a case study of ginger extraction using microwave-assisted hydrodistillation to compare images from before and after the extraction process of ginger. Lastly, Chapter Four addresses the state of the art of research on the use of ginger in health promotion.
