The Formulation: The Big Difference

INTI: The Triple Scientific Synergy

INTI is formulated around a precise scientific principle: the combination ginger + turmeric + black pepper. This triple formula is no coincidence:

• The gingerol ginger inhibits COX-2 and LOX (inflammatory pathways)
• The curcumin turmeric blocks NF-κB (the master switch of chronic inflammation)
• The piperine black pepper increases the bioavailability of curcumin 2 000%

Result: a spectrum anti-inflammatory completeness that none of the three ingredients could offer alone.

GIMBER: Ginger Concentrate

GIMBER is an organic ginger concentrate to be diluted in water, a cocktail or a hot drink. Its main ingredient is ginger, followed by lemon and cane sugar. It does not contain turmeric or black pepper.

It's a good product, but it lacks the scientific synergy that makes INTI strong.

The Sugar Question

This is an important point. GIMBER contains cane sugar as the third ingredient. Why is this a problem?

• Sugar is pro-inflammatory — it activates the exact pathways (NF-κB) that ginger is thought to inhibit
• Sugar promotes resistance toinsulin, counteracting the positive metabolic effects of ginger
• For a “health” drink, the presence of added sugar is contradictory

INTI does not contain no added sugar. The taste is more intense, but that's precisely because it's not masked by sugar.

Practicality

INTI

• Ready-to-drink individual shots — open and drink in 5 seconds
• Precise dosage with each dose
• Easy to carry (office, backpack sports, travel)

GIMBER

• Diluting bottle — measure, pour and mix
• Variable dosage according to individual taste
• More capacity, but requires a glass and water

Effectiveness: What the Science Says

To benefit from the therapeutic effects of ginger, you must reach a minimum dose of 2-3 grams of dried ginger per day. The question is: which format achieves this dose most easily?

• A shot INTI delivers a calibrated concentrated dose, increased by the synergy of turmeric + black pepper
• With GIMBER, the dose depends on the quantity you pour — risk of underdosing if you do not add enough

For Who?

Choose INTI if:

• You are looking for maximum efficiency (triple scientific formula)
• You don't want added sugar
• You prefer the convenience of a ready-to-drink shot
• You want precise and consistent dosing

GIMBER may be suitable if:

• You prefer to dilute your ginger in a large drink
• You like to create your own mixes and cocktails
• You don't mind added sugar

Our Verdict

Both are quality Belgian products using organic ginger. But if your goal is maximum health and efficiency, INTI has a decisive advantage: the triple synergy ginger + turmeric + black pepper, sugar free added, in a concentrated format with precise dosage.

For those who simply want to add a touch of ginger to their drinks, GIMBER gets the job done. But for a real daily health shot, INTI is the most complete formula on the market.
