Ginger
Description
These capsules contain certified organic Ginger, freshly dried to ensure retention of the pungent natural oils. The characteristic odor and flavor of Ginger root is caused by a mixture of zingerone, shoagoles and gingerols; volatile oils that we know require special manufacturing steps to preserve their integrity.
During cultivation, root crops are very susceptible to pests and it takes a skilled organic farmer to raise high quality Ginger without the use of pesticides or herbicides. Insist on certified organic root crops!
