Ginger - essential oil
The doTERRA ginger essential oil, which is new from Madagascar, is extracted from the fresh rhizome of the ginger plant, i.e. the underground stem of the plant from which the root system sprouts. Ginger is a key ingredient in many Asian dishes and has a pungent, aromatic flavor when used as a culinary spice. In the Western tradition, ginger is most commonly used in sweets: gingerbread and ginger cookies are just two examples. When used externally, ginger essential oil provides a warming feeling on the skin.
