Ginger has a long history of use in folk and alternative medicine. While you may associate ginger with its stomach-settling properties, practitioners also use it to treat high blood pressure and to improve blood circulation, among other uses. Ginger, which comes from the rhizome, or root of the plant, can cause problems if you have gallstones. Don't take ginger supplements or consume large amounts of ginger without your doctor's approval.
