According to recent data up to 90% of young women report that they are suffering from painful menstrual periods*.

For those not willing to take the conventionally prescribed medication (or not able to tolerate it, due to the significant side effects) ginger seems to be an effective alternative.

The recommended dosing is 750mg-2,000mg in three daily divided doses for the first three to four days of the menstrual cycle.

True Botanica has paid particular attention to make this formula stronger for supporting not only the etheric body functions (anti -inflammatory effects) but also the higher ego organization. This was achieved through unique features. With the addition of the ashes of the ginger root to the final mix the formula contains not only the basic primary active ingredients, with their soothing effects, but contains also the trace minerals naturally occurring in the plant. It is these minerals that support the higher spiritual functions of the human being. The ego organization needs minerals which it then uses to directly regulate the warmth content in the body. We have indeed noted a more warming and consequently relaxing effect of this formula than after the use of other ginger products on the market. This warming effect may not only help momentarily but may also reduce the incidence of the cramps in the future.

With the increasing stress in our culture, stress that is experienced by humans of all ages- girls too (!) – it is no wonder that a “warming” ingredient is beneficial in relieving “cold” cramping (constriction) and pain.

There are many more useful applications of ginger. Its use needs to be greatly increased.
