THE VARIOUS THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS OF GINGER (ZINGIBER OFFICINALE ROSCOE) ON HUMAN HEALTH

Abstract

Ginger is a yellowish root also called as spice which belongs to the zingiberaceae family and grown in various parts of the world, countries such as India, China, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Australia, Fiji, Jamaica and Nepal. It is a flowering plant with root, stem and leaves which can be consumed as fresh root, dried root, ground powder, pickle, ginger oil, ginger candy, ginger water or ginger tea. For thousands of years ginger has been used as a herbal medicine to prevent colds, digestive complaints, nausea and increase circulation in Ayurvedic, Indian and Chinese medicine. In addition to this, ginger is used as a medical plant in Roman, Greek and Ottoman medical history is shown in the records. Nowadays, there are many studies showing that it is important to prevent the nausea and vomiting due to chemotherapy, postoperative and in pregnancy; to use it in the treatment of colds, joint disease and asthma treatment; to reduce the risk of colorectal and prostate cancer, dysmenorrhea, diabetes and fat metabolism; and body composition in athletes improve exercise performance. When the effective components and chemical structure it contains are examined, two important phytochemicals, such as the volatile and non-volatile fatty acids show these effects of ginger. Although studies show positive effects of ginger on many health problems, more clinical research is needed to prove the most effective dose.

ZENCEFİL’İN (ZINGIBER OFFICINALE ROSCOE) İNSAN SAĞLIĞI ÜZERİNE ÇEŞİTLİ TERAPÖTİK ETKİLERİ

Abstract

Zencefil (zingiber officinale roscoe), çoğunlukla Hindistan, Çin, Nijerya, Sierra Leone, Endonezya, Bangladeş, Avustralya, Fiji, Jamaika ve Nepal gibi ülkelerden gelen ve dünyanın çeşitli yerlerinde yetiştirilen zencefilgiller (zingiberaceace) ailesinden olan, baharat olarak da anılan yumru köklü sarımtırak bir bitkidir. Kök, gövde ve yaprakları olan bu bitki; taze kök, kuru kök, öğütülmüş toz, turşu, zencefil yağı, zencefil şekerlemesi, zencefilli su veya zencefil çayı olarak tüketilebilmektedir. Ayurvedik, Hint ve Çin tıbbında, soğuk algınlığını, sindirim şikâyetlerini, mide bulantısını önlemek ve dolaşımı arttırmak için bitkisel ilaç olarak binlerce yıldır kullanılmış ve Roma, Yunan ve Osmanlı tıp tarihi kayıtlarında tıbbi bir bitki olarak kullanıldığı gösterilmiştir. Günümüzde kemoterapi kaynaklı, ameliyat sonrası ve hamilelikteki bulantı ve kusmayı önlemede; soğuk algınlığı tedavisinde, eklem hastalığı ve astım tedavisinde, kolorektal ve prostat kanseri riskini azaltmada, dismenore, diyabet ve yağ metabolizması üzerine etkisinin olduğu, vücut kompozisyonunu ve egzersiz performansını arttırdığını gösteren birçok çalışma vardır. İçerdiği biyoaktif bileşenleri ve kimyasal yapısı incelendiğinde yapısında bulunan uçucu ve uçucu olmayan yağ asitleri gibi iki önemli fitokimyasal etkenler zencefilin etkilerini ortaya koymaktadır. Çalışmalarda, zencefilin birçok sağlık sorunu üzerine olumlu etkilerinin görülmesine rağmen; en etkili dozunun kanıtlanması için daha fazla klinik araştırmaya ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
