Thank you for the information. Do you have a source for the 10% reduction?

I use both Ginger and Turmeric for their anti-inflammatory properties.

No sorry Dan, I don't have a link to the original study...Just found the piece in my newspaper and thought it might help people so decided to pass it on.

Interesting ginger fact: Ginger exists in 2 forms. Fresh and dried. AND THEY ARE DIFFERENT. DRIED ginger has more of the antinflamatory compounds.

Ginger kills ovarian cancer cells and helps lower inflammation in beta amyloid plaque in vitro.

Do you think the dried ginger is more concentrated and that's why it's more potent or is there something else to it?
