Herbal Critical Extracts-Ginger

[Guest guest]

From what I understand, the critical extracts of herbs are extracted

by CO2 method. Is this different from CO2 extracted essential oils?

In other words, is the CO2 extracted ginger essential oil that I have

(which is wonderful, BTW) any different than the ginger in critically

extracted herb gel caps?

 

I use ginger for inflammation, and it works wonderfully. I use the

ginger capsules (dried) and ginger syrups (in honey) and crystallized

ginger. What I am thinking is that I can add the CO2 ginger to honey

and use that for tea instead of buying the ready made stuff; it

would certainly be cheaper. I am going to try growing ginger, too.

My hubby just planted some that I had that began sprouting, so

hopefully next fall I will have fresh ginger.

 

Any ideas/thoughts are appreciated.
