Ginger is pungent and warm, and has the effects of sweating, relieving exterior syndrome, stopping vomiting, warming lung and relieving cough. It is really a good medicine that comes down in one continuous line with food. Therefore, there is a folk saying that "eating radish in winter and ginger in summer does not require doctors to prescribe medicine".

Ginger is made into ginger candy tablets after processing, and some ingredients may be lost during processing, and the effect is definitely not as good as ginger; Moreover, some ginger candy tablets are not necessarily processed from ginger, but are added with chemical seasonings to make them taste like ginger, so they have no effect of ginger at all.

Ginger is not eaten directly, but is usually used as a seasoning when cooking. The spicy taste of ginger is still mild, so you can put a little ginger when cooking.

I hope the above answers can provide you with useful reference!
