BulkSupplements.com Ginger Root Extract Powder - Ginger Supplement, Ginger Root Powder - Herbal Supplement, Gluten Free, 500mg per Serving, 100g (3.5 oz) (Pack of 1)

This ginger root extract has been instrumental in helping to relieve my mom's osteoarthritis pain. I use the powder in various health supplements, including my Anti-Inflammatory Pain-Relief Supplement and my Anti-Viral/Antibiotic Immune Protection Supplement. The powder is of good consistency and is potent. It truly helps improve various health issues, including chronic pain and pain caused by a buildup of toxins in the body (i.e. arthritis). This stuff is also helpful for gastrointestinal problems like nausea and stomachache. It's excellent for boosting the immune system and works as an effective synergist in various herbal blends. Other than the terrible quality bag, this ginger root extract powder is a very good product!

I don't see me needing to reorder this for a VERY loooong time. It's definitely PURE GINGER, and extremely strong. 1st time out for a test drive with it, I used way too much. GAG reflex has nothing on me. Oh Lordie! Ever heard of "pinch of..." yeah, with this Ginger a pinch will cure your needs. I use this in cooking, will use it in baking down the road. I won't however be using it anytime soon in any juices or drinks.. well, except maybe a complimentary Hot Tea. IF I can find one that this doesn't over power. Not complaining. I'm just in need to learn how to fraction this down to make it taste good. So far it's safe to say I have mastered cooking with it. My goal is to master the GINGERBREAD flavor with this product in just about everything. Smoothie, coffee, both black & white teas, as well as baked goods such as cookies, sweet breads and also actual bread. It TIS'The Season. With the amount in this bag, I don't see me reordering for at least a 6-8 month span & that would be using it in all the things I mentioned and what ever else I can put my mind to. Ginger is a great pain reliever, so the more recipes used the better the days & nights will feel. I've had entirely too many injuries to not include Ginger in my day to day! * Oh, I DON'T do synthetics if at all possible * Little explanation, I fell while speed walking back to my desk about 27 months ago. My left foot hit a puddle of cleaning solvent left behind by a housekeeper who was either lazy or neglectful. I hit the floor before I knew I fell. I've never fell that fast in my life! I also hurt ALL over. Cracked my tailbone in the fall. Thank God for the bodies reflexes. My arms folded up under my rib cage & chest when I fell. No clue if that's normal or not. But YAY! Otherwise my head would have met the floor more intimately than it did. My point in describing this, is to say I REALLY HURT for most all of this time. Ginger played a HUGE part in not taking any pain pills like Norco or Tylenol with COdeine. I hate the way synthetics mess with my mind, emotions, and thinking. But with Ginger, Tumeric Curcumin, and Peppermint (as a rub) i was able to survive. Not happily, but I'm no longer in need of pain pills, rubs, or patches. I won't profess to be Gumby, but I am more bendy. For lack of a better word. I can touch my toes again. I can squat pretty decent, still needs work. With reduced pain, I have been steadily losing the stored swelling & gained weight. I literally was made to rest to heal through this. So activity has been a true & genuine blessing for me these past 4 or so months. Ginger has a large part in all this. Well that an re-introducing HMB into that mix. The 2 ingredients together have been a quicker healing than with a pain killer. Which only hides the pain, but does nothing towards the actual healing.

I loved the value as well as how easy it was to mix in/dissolve with other ingredients to make my own capsules for health benefits. The quality is fantastic.

Mild taste and blends easily into smoothies.

Good product

Bulk Supplements makes quality clean bulk supplements. It's that simple - but clearly not in this case. I knew the ginger root powder was off the moment I opened the bag. I had previously for several years bought ginger root powder from frontier coop. When I open a bag of their ginger root powder it smacks you in the face with curcumin and all this vital flavonoids and terpenes, it is the full throated ginger root. Bulk supp - I don't know what they did, but it doesn't even look like ginger root powder, let alone smell of it. It's like off white-yellow and I stick my face full in the bag and it's like - denuded, or denatured. It has none of the slap you in the face, none of the vibrant ruddy deep yellows or red hues. I feel almost like its tinted talcum powder, quite honestly. And then I looked at my bag, I never saw this on a Bulk Supp product before. Usually is says "Other ingredients: none" cause duh. It's bulk supplements, clean mean, no thrills no frills. MY bag says "Other ingredients: DEXTRIN" Yet the labels on the page say "none". I'm not sure what to make of this because I have religiously touted bulk supplements as the go to for making your own apothecary for 1/1000th the price of compounded tablet products. But this shakes my confidence in their quality pledge/claim, especially because ginger root power (the full throated kind) is a critical part of a DIY bowel cleanse I accidently developed while playing apothecary whackamole. Bowel cleanse is..insufficient. More like bowel blast. And the flavonoid rich ginger root powder is critical in the cleanse stack. The FULL THROATED ginger root is the "roto rooter" part of the cleanse, it does marvels for any gastric distress. But this garbage, it has been a VERY painful day to say the least. Absent the full flavonoid profile, the cleanse turns in to a progressively more and more painful slog because no REAL ginger root = no "roto rooter" action = it's all wrong and it HURTS LIKE HELL. So I would say stay away from this one kids, go to another supplier for ginger root powder, if it doesn't smack you in the face when you open the bag it's not proper or quality ginger root powder. Period.
