Hvordan virker ingefær?

Den eksakte virkningsmekanismen til ingefær mot kvalme er uklar, men det ser ut til at midlet hemmer signalmottakere i nervesystemet (serotoninreseptorer) og utøver sin kvalmestillende effekt i fordøyelseskanalen og i sentralnervesystemet2. Det er også antydet at ingefær har betennelsesdempende effekter, f.eks. ved gikttilstander.
