Ginger is an excellent source of antioxidants. Trusted sources have shown that, for this reason, ginger can reduce various types of oxidative stress. Oxidative happens when too many free radicals build up in the body. Free radicals are toxic substances produced by metabolism and other factors. The body needs to eliminate free radicals to prevent them from causing cellular damage that can lead to a range of diseases, including cancer. Dietary antioxidants help the body get rid of free radicals.
