Reason N°1: 1.19g sugar — the least sweet ginger shot
In a market where ginger-2025">comparison INTI vs GIMBER (~35g/100ml), industrial ginger juices (5-12g) and sugary shots (6-10g) dominate, INTI is the option with the least sugar. And that sugar (1.19g/100ml) is 100% natural, derived from artisanal preparation of fresh ginger — no form of added sugar.
Practical difference: a daily INTI shot = <4g natural sugar/day. A daily GIMBER shot: 7-10g added cane sugar. Over a year: 2.5 kg less sugar with INTI.
Reason N°2: carefully prepared — the method that preserves what matters
Cold pressing (≤4°C, without heat) is the only method that preserves:
- [6]-gingerol: main anti-inflammatory-science-utilisation">ginger anti-inflammatory active, degrades above 40°C → all heat methods partially destroy it
- Natural digestive enzymes: proteases, amylases present in fresh ginger → destroyed by pasteurization
- Heat-labile polyphenols: anthocyanins, flavonoids → sensitive to heat
- Vitamin C: 60-80% lost during pasteurization
Reason N°3: clinically documented active ingredients
Ginger is one of the most documented plants in integrative medicine:
- >3000 publications in PubMed on Zingiber officinale
- Anti-inflammatory via inflammation-mecanisme-cle-gingembre-sucre-explication-2026">NF-κB (Habib et al., 2008)
- Anti-nausea (Vutyavanich et al., 2001 — nausea ginger pregnancy -28%)
- Pain relief (Altman & Marcussen, 2001 — ginger knee pain OA -63%)
- AMPK and metabolism (Li et al., 2012)
- Anti-DOMS (Hoseinzadeh et al., 2015 — DOMS -24% post-training)
Reason N°4: maximum versatility
