Sažetak

Ginger (lat. Zingiber officinale) is a root originating from India. It is used primarily as a fresh root or as a ground powder, from previously dried roots. In the form of compress, it is used with acute or chronic pain (rheumatism, arthritis, back pain, abdominal cramps, neck stiffness, bronchitis and bronchial asthma, inflammation of the liver and kidney with asthmatic attacks, and works well on metabolism in patients with diabetes). It has multiple properties: analgesic, sedative, diuretic, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory. Ginger has been proved as an effective drug in the treatment of osteoarthritis. It contains hundreds of known components including gingeroles, beta carotene, capsaicin, coffeine acid and curcumin. Fresh roots were found to contain salicylates in quantities of 4.5 mg / 100 mg. Ginger is a powerful antioxidant that reduces or prevents generation of free radicals. In some parts of the world, ginger juice is applied to the skin to treat burns. It is also used in the food and beverage industry, as a spice and seasoning. Ginger contains a chemical substance gingerol used as an antacid, laxative and carminative medicine. For centuries, ginger has been reliably used as food and medicine. None of the trials on humans have shown extremely negative effects of ginger, and in the medical literature there are no data of its toxicity.
The aim of this study was to present characteristics of ginger that are important in medical treatment. The final goal of this paper is to summarize the latest knowledge of ginger as a plant and its use in the prevention and treatment of diseases.
