Ginger and Bodybuilding: Recovery, Mass Gain and Anti-Catabolism

In bodybuilding, growth happens during recovery, not during training. Ginger optimizes this phase: −25% soreness, less inflammation, and a favorable hormonal environment.

💪 4 benefits for bodybuilding

• Recovery (−25% DOMS) : meta-analysis — less aches = you can re-train the muscle sooner
• Anti-inflammatory : reduces excessive inflammation (CK, IL-6) without blocking hypertrophy (unlike high doses of NSAIDs which slow down muscle growth)
• Testosterone : studies show support for testosterone levels – key to mass gain
• Protein digestion : ginger stimulates digestive enzymes → better assimilation of your protein intake

🍬 Why sugar-free for dryness

When dry, every gram of sugar counts. INTI is no added sugar and don't interfere with your macro plan. Compatible with dry, clean mass gain and intermittent fasting.

🕐 Bodybuilding timing

1. Morning : 1 shot → basic anti-inflammatory
2. Post-training : speeds up recovery
3. Daily : the recovery effect is cumulative
