Ginger makes me feel better. Am I the only one?

Unread post by temp2021 »

I have seen several members here talking about crashing from ginger. For me it helps me a lot in every way (numbness, cognition, digestion, fatigue). In fact, if it has not been for ginger I would have not been able to have a full time job. It works like 15 min after I drink ginger tea. Am I the only one who benefits from ginger. Any possible explanation why it is good for some and bad for others?

Thanks!

That's interesting. I have taken ginger+turmeric tea, it feels great, it feels good on digestion, also being anti-nausea. Have you posted your experience on r/pssd ?

because what you experienced is kinda the opposite of the "Ginger-crash" season there.

Be careful you'll crash and destroy your fucking life.. it's a strong 5ht1a agonist so you're getting relief from temporary 5ht1a activation but 5ht1a receptors will eventually desensitize further with chronic use. It's mind boggling how many times I have to repeat the same warnings over and over again.

(Mild pssd you may be able tolerate without crashing but you're playing with fire. I also ate about an inch of raw ginger every morning for about a week and a half until crashing/serotonin syndrome. I have debilitating symptoms now. It's just my experience though feel free to do whatever you want).

Thank you for pointing this out. I will be careful. Maybe I will cycle it.

I guess I am fine; I drink ginger tea randomly once in a while.
Then you ate a pound of ginger per week and "crashed with serotonin syndrome due to 5ht1a agonist"?
If someone "doesn't crash" is "mild-pssd", nice logic...

Stay away from this shit.. I'll keep preaching it but can't help people with huge egos that don't listen.
