A study conducted by the European Review for Medical and Pharmaceutical Sciences came to the conclusion that ginger is just as effective of a fat-burner as commercially available ones, such as Orlistat. It was also found to not induce the same negative side effects as these commercial fat burners, and also helps retain “good” cholesterol, making it an efficient and safe natural fat burner.

Cancer
Ginger has been shown throughout a variety of studies to have anti-carcinogenic properties. This is due to the anti-oxidative effects that the ingredients found in ginger have. Ingredients such as gingerols, shogaol and paradols have all been shown to help prevent cancer.
Diabetes
According to the Iranian Journal of Pharmaceutical Research, ginger is an effective treatment for patients with type-2 diabetes.
