Looking for a Companion to Your GLP-1 Weight Management Journey?
Digestive discomfort is one of the most common complaints that accompanies GLP-1 use. Ginger is a time-honored gastrointestinal tonic that can help soothe both upper and lower GI upset, including mild and occasional nausea, gas and more. Ginger also supports optimal gut motility, that is, the movement of food through the GI tract. This rate of movement impacts digestion, nutrient absorption and blood sugar levels, all of which are key to overall metabolic health.

FAQ
- What Are Gingerols and Why Are They Important?
Gingerols are naturally occurring phenolic compounds found in fresh ginger root and are considered some of ginger's primary bioactive constituents. They contribute to ginger's characteristic flavor and are the focus of much of the scientific research on ginger. For this reason, gingerols are often used as markers of quality in ginger extracts and supplements. - How Does Ginger Support Digestive Health?
Research suggests that ginger's naturally occurring compounds, including gingerols and shogaols, interact with digestive processes involved in gastric motility and stomach emptying. Because efficient digestive function plays an important role in overall digestive wellness, ginger has a long history of use as a digestive-support botanical. - What Is the Difference Between Ginger Root and Ginger Extract?
Whole ginger root contains the full spectrum of naturally occurring compounds found in ginger. Ginger extracts are concentrated preparations that may be standardized to provide specific levels of key compounds, such as gingerols, allowing for greater consistency from serving to serving. - What Are Shogaols and How Do They Differ From Gingerols?
Shogaols are naturally occurring compounds that form when ginger is dried, heated, or processed. While gingerols are the predominant compounds in fresh ginger, shogaols are found in higher concentrations in dried ginger and certain ginger extracts. Both compounds are bioactive constituents of ginger and contribute to the unique characteristics that have made ginger one of the most widely studied botanical ingredients. - What Makes Swanson Ginger Root Standardized Different From Other Ginger Supplements?
Swanson Ginger Root Standardized combines two forms of ginger in a single formula: 250 mg of whole ginger root and 250 mg of a concentrated ginger extract standardized to 5% gingerols and shogaols, the key bioactive compounds found in ginger. This dual approach provides both the naturally occurring constituents of whole ginger and the consistent potency of a standardized extract, helping ensure reliable levels of ginger's characteristic compounds in every serving. - Is Swanson Ginger Root Standardized Suitable for Special Diets?
Swanson Ginger Root Standardized is non-GMO and dairy free. However, it is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets because the capsules contain gelatin, and it is not gluten free.
