**Ginger cultivation first began in South Asia and then spread to Caribbean and East Africa. Ginger is the rhizome of Zingiber plant. The characteristic flavor of ginger is caused by a mixture of zingerone, shogaols and gingerols. The pungent taste is due to nonvolatile phenylpropanoid derived compounds mentioned above. Ginger is used in the preparation of ginger tea, ginger pickle and often used as an important spice. Powdered dry ginger is used to flavor ginger bread, cookies, cakes, ginger ale and ginger beer. It is used as herbal medicine in the cure of gastric disorders, constipation and diarrhea and nausea. Ginger is contraindicated in persons suffering from gallstones as it promotes the production of bile.
