Ginger has long been used for spiritual and physical health and protection against evil spirits, in addition to an aphrodisiac and remedy for upset stomach, nausea, and congestion. Used by early European settlers. Native Americans used another type of ginger, native to North America. Selected by Susan for its value in early history through today.
