Ginger and cancer: state of research

The ginger is the subject of research in preventive oncology. Here's what the studies show — and their limitations.

Anticancer mechanisms studied

Mechanism Active compound Research stage
NF-κB inhibition 6-gingerol In vitro + animal
Cellular apoptosis 6-shogaol In vitro
Anti-angiogenesis Zerumbone In vitro + animal
Anti-proliferation 6-gingerol In vitro

Important Limitations

The majority of studies are in vitro (in the laboratory) or on animal models. Large-scale human clinical trials are still lacking. Ginger is not a treatment for cancer — it is a food with bioactive properties currently being studied.

The role of inflammation

Chronic inflammation is a recognized factor in carcinogenesis. Ginger, by inhibiting NF-κB and COX-2, acts on this inflammatory area. But sugar activates NF-κB, potentially reversing this effect.
