Many people have used ginger in their cooking, but they give little thought to where the root comes from. Most groceries carry fresh ginger roots that have been trimmed, leading many people to assume the ginger they buy is locally produced. However, most of the world’s ginger comes from countries in Asia with warm and humid climates, such as Thailand.
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, global interest in health and wellness has surged. This growing awareness has propelled Thai ginger into the spotlight, with demand skyrocketing due to its renowned health benefits. Known for its immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties, Thai ginger offers a wealth of advantages, including:
- May help with weight loss
- Can reduce the pain of osteoarthritis
- May lower blood sugar
- Can help treat chronic indigestion
- May reduce menstrual pain
- May help lower cholesterol levels
- Can help fight infections
- May protect against Alzheimer’s disease
- May help reduce the risk of cancer
The exceptional benefits of Thai ginger have significantly boosted its global popularity as people increasingly prioritize their health and wellness. This growing awareness and focus on well-being have positioned Thai ginger as a highly preferred export product, valued for its numerous health-enhancing properties.
What is a Preferred Export Product?
A preferred export product is a product judged to be important enough to the export country’s economy that its shipping and logistics are governed by strict guidelines and shipping standards. These shipping standards are meant to ensure the products shipped reach their final destination and deliver the same high-quality tastes, textures, and benefits.
These shipping standards are codified, maintained and enforced under GLOBAL G.A.P.
