About Ginger

The botanical name for ginger is Zingiber officinale, and it belongs to the Zingiberaceae family. Ginger is a popular spice that has been used for both culinary and medicinal purposes for thousands of years. It has a unique, spicy, and slightly sweet flavor that is often used in Asian and Indian cuisines. Northern Extracts uses Supercritical Fluid Extraction to produce an extract from ginger. This method involves subjecting the dried ginger root to high pressures and ambient temperatures to extract the desired compounds. The resulting extract is a pure, natural product with a golden-brown color and a warm, spicy flavor. Due to its unique flavor and medicinal properties, our ginger extract is a valuable ingredient in the food and pharmaceutical industries. It is commonly used as a natural flavoring agent and is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which have been linked to potential health benefits. In addition, ginger extract is also used in the cosmetic industry as an ingredient in skincare products.
