INTI vs Gimber: The Honest Ginger Shot Comparison (Germany, Sugar-Free, Organic Test 2026)

Two Belgian organic ginger brands. But with very different recipes. Here are the facts from the label.

Nutritional Comparison

Criterion	INTI	Gimber N°1
Sugar per 100ml	0g added	34g
2nd Ingredient	Turmeric	Cane Sugar
Formula	Ginger + Turmeric + Black Pepper	Ginger + Cane Sugar + Lemon
Organic Certified	Yes	Yes
Black Pepper	Yes	No

The Sugar Problem

Gimber N°1 Original contains 34g of sugar per 100ml concentrate. That's more than 3 times as much as Coca-Cola (10.6g/100ml). Even the "lighter" version N°2 Brut contains about 17g/100ml – still 60% more than Coke.

Why Black Pepper is Important

Piperine from black pepper increases the bioavailability of curcumin by 2,000% (Shoba et al., 1998). INTI combines ginger, turmeric, AND black pepper – all three active ingredients enhance each other.

Gimber contains neither turmeric nor black pepper.

Conclusion

If you drink ginger for health, choose a formula without added sugar. INTI is organic, contains ginger + turmeric + black pepper, and has zero grams of added sugar.
