When Dr. Payne and Dr. Daniero set out to create RefluxRaft, they set out to create a revolutionary, all-natural product aimed at offering temporary relief from the oftentime debilitating symptoms associated with acid reflux, GERD, LPR and similar maladies.
The full list of ingredients of RefluxRaft is located here – but the doctors started with ginger as a baseline ingredient for our product for a variety of reasons.
Ginger has a long history of use as a medicinal herb and is believed to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Some of the potential health benefits of ginger include:
- Relief of nausea and vomiting – Ginger has been found to be effective in reducing symptoms of nausea and vomiting caused by pregnancy, chemotherapy, and surgery.
- Reduction of muscle pain and soreness – consuming ginger may help to reduce muscle pain and soreness caused by exercise.
- Lowering blood sugar levels: ginger may have a beneficial effect on blood sugar control, which may be helpful for people with type 2 diabetes.
- Heart health – ginger has been found to have a positive effect on heart health markers such as blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
- Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties – ginger contains compounds that have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects which may help to reduce the risk of certain diseases such as cancer.
It is important to note that many of these potential benefits are still under research, more studies are needed to confirm these benefits. As always, consult with a healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet or your use of supplements.
