? Ginger can relieve muscle soreness caused by fitness exercise.

According to foreign media reports, people have been using and disgusting for hundreds of years. Now, however, researchers at the University of Georgia have found that eating it every day can also reduce muscle soreness.

Patrick O'Connor, a professor of anthropology at the College of Education of the University of Georgia, said that although experiments on mice showed that ginger had anti-inflammatory effect, little was known about its efficacy in treating experimental human muscle soreness. It is believed that heating ginger, such as adding ginger when cooking food, will improve its analgesic effect.

Professor O 'Connor conducted two studies on the efficacy of ginger or the pain of ginger after heating. The whole investigation time is 1 1 day. Other participants in this study include Chris Blake, Assistant Professor of Kinematics at the University of Georgia, Matt Herring, Ph.D. student at the University of Georgia, and David Hurley, Associate Professor of Human Health at the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Georgia. In addition, 34 volunteers and 40 volunteers took capsules containing ginger or heated ginger or placebo 1 1 day, respectively. The results show that the daily supplement of ginger can reduce muscle soreness by about 40%, and the effect is more obvious after ginger is heated.

Professor O 'Connor said: "The economic and personal costs of pain are very high. Muscle soreness is one of the most common pains, and muscle soreness related to exercise is a common injury in sports or leisure (such as gardening). For those who have had this experience, anything that can be really so sour is very popular. "
