Ginger shots without added sugar can protect the ginger-turmeric-liver-inflammation-fatty-liver-2026">liver from fatty liver disease (liver-detox-enzymes-hepatiques">ginger NAFLD) — but only without added sugar.
INTI: <1.19g sugar/100ml → activation of hepatic AMPK, reduction of lipogenesis, Nrf2 protection.
GIMBER: ~35g sugar/100ml (including fructose) → direct risk factor for NAFLD: fructose is almost exclusively metabolized by the liver and promotes de novo lipogenesis.

NAFLD: A Silent Epidemic
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) now affects 25% of the global population and is directly linked to the consumption of added sugars, particularly fructose. The liver is the only organ that can metabolize fructose in large quantities — and converts it into fats (ginger triglycerides) when in excess.
The INTI ginger shot
Organic ginger and turmeric, black pepper for the piperine, no added sugar. Made in Belgium.
Discover INTI →How Ginger Protects the Liver
- Activation of hepatic AMPK: reduces fatty acid synthesis (lipogenesis) and increases oxidation of existing fats
- Inhibition of SREBP-1c: the transcription factor that activates hepatic lipogenesis genes
- Nrf2/HO-1 protection: reduces hepatic oxidative cortisol-naturel">stress, a key factor in NAFLD → NASH → cirrhosis progression
- Reduction of hepatic TNF-α expression: liver inflammation is a defining progression factor
What GIMBER's Fructose Does to the Liver
GIMBER uses cane sugar (sucrose = 50% glucose + 50% fructose). Ingested fructose:
- Is transported directly to the liver via the portal vein
- Is phosphorylated by fructokinase C (bypassing the glucose regulatory step)
- Generates uric acid (inhibits AMPK, promotes hypertension)
- Stimulates SREBP-1c → de novo lipogenesis → accumulation of liver fats
- Promotes hepatic insulin resistance
Ginger-2025">INTI vs GIMBER: Hepatic Impact
| Liver Mechanism | INTI (1.19g sugar) | GIMBER (~35g sugar) |
|---|---|---|
| Hepatic AMPK | ↑ Activated | ↓ Inhibited (uric acid) |
| SREBP-1c (lipogenesis) | ↓ Inhibited | ↑ Activated (fructose) |
| Hepatic Triglycerides | ↓ Reduced | ↑ Increased |
| Hepatic Oxidative Stress | ↓ Reduced (Nrf2) | ↑ Increased |
| NAFLD Risk | ↓ Reduced | ↑ Increased (chronic use) |
