The famous ancient Roman physician and philosopher Claudius Galen encouraged men to eat sweets with the addition of ginger root to cure sexual impotence.
The Persian doctor Avicenna, known since the Middle Ages, mentioned in his notes that ginger “awakens lust”. In China, the rhizome of this reed-like plant is still considered the first means of increasing potency.
In the article, we will tell you what useful properties ginger has for men and give popular recipes to improve potency.

Ginger Benefits for Men
Ginger is known as a male aphrodisiac due to its ability to stimulate testosterone production and increase libido. Regular use of rhizome extracts in the testicles increases the amount of cholesterol, the main component from which Leydig cells synthesize testosterone molecules. At the same time, the weight of the gonads increases slightly. Initially, these properties were confirmed by experiments on rodents and, later, men suffering from infertility participated in the study. After 3 months of regular intake of ginger extract, testosterone levels in individuals increased by 18%, which led to an improvement in fertility parameters and semen analysis.
Effect on sperm characteristics:
- Quantity increased by 16%;
- Mobility - by 43%;
- The total number of specimens without structural pathologies - by 18%;
- Vitality - 40%;
- The semen volume increased by 36% in 3 months.
Ginger root is especially beneficial for overweight men. Excess fat is a source of female hormones and an inhibitor of testosterone synthesis.
Ginger helps you to take shape through the following properties:
- Accelerates the onset of a feeling of satiety during a meal;
- Improves intestinal motor activity, by which its emptying occurs;
- During the 6 hours after a meal, caloric expenditure increases by speeding up your metabolism (thus, ginger tea warms you up). As a result, not only are the fat burning processes triggered, but also the blood circulation is activated, which is in direct proportion to the metabolic processes.
To achieve the above effects, just ingest 4 g of dried ginger, ground into powder daily, distributing this amount to each meal (can be added to the food as a seasoning).
