Is Ginger Beer Actually Good for You?

Ginger has long been known as a wellness solution, from sipping on a lemon ginger tea when you're sick, to reaching for a ginger-based drink to settle an upset tum.   

Naturally, this leads us to question: Is ginger beer actually good for you?

Well, the truth lies somewhere in between. And we're here to debunk whether ginger beer, and especially Remedy's Ginger Beer, is actually good for you

What are the benefits of ginger?

Ginger, or its government name, Zingiber officinale Roscoe (fancy!), has been found to possess multiple health benefits.

One review published by the Royal Society of Chemistry found that ginger can help with a surprisingly long list of health concerns, from muscular cramps to digestive issues, and that's only scratching the surface.

This is why ginger has cemented its status as a wellness ingredient for centuries!

The study also suggests that ginger may help support:

  • Constipation
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Indigestion
  • Bloating

According to another study, brewing ginger beer with natural ginger, as we do at Remedy, enriches it with numerous well-being benefits.

Ginger also contains a naturally occurring compound called Gingerol.

According to John Hopkins Medicine, Gingerol may help "gastrointestinal motility," or in other words, it helps food move through your stomach more efficiently. 

These studies show that ginger itself offers all of these wonderful benefits.

So… what does this mean for Ginger Beer?

How do we make Remedy Ginger Beer?

We authentically brew Remedy Ginger Beer using fresh crushed Aussie ginger. 

We start by brewing a pot of ginger tea. Then, we ferment it to craft that strong, bold, and full-bodied flavour that delivers a real hit of ginger.

By starting with real ginger tea, our Ginger Beer stays true to the ingredient that has earned itself a long-standing reputation for wellness.

Is ginger beer actually good for you?

Like most things, it depends.

If you're talking about the ginger itself, the research is promising. But when it comes to ginger beer, the answer really depends on how it's brewed.

We can't speak for other brews, but we make Remedy Ginger Beer with 100% natural ingredients and no sugar, for real. And this is the case across our entire bev range.

However, many other ginger beers out there can't say the same. And whilst they're tasty, we prefer our brews to be made with natural ingredients and no sugar.

Remedy Ginger Beer is made to be enjoyed anytime, anywhere, and by anyone. 

Whether you're on the go or winding down for the day, Remedy Ginger Beer is true to its roots and brewed for those who appreciate the good stuff.
