Organic Ginger Root Extract Powder - Concentrated Gingerols & Shogaols
Organic Ginger Root Extract Powder - Concentrated Gingerols & Shogaols
Couldn't load pickup availability
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) has been a kitchen and herbal staple for thousands of years. This is a certified organic concentrated root extract — considerably stronger than ground culinary ginger, and much easier than grating fresh root every morning.
The compounds that give ginger its heat and character are gingerols in the fresh root and shogaols, which form as it is dried and processed. Concentrating the root brings both forward, so the flavour is bright and genuinely warming rather than dusty. It is a single ingredient: organic ginger root, nothing added.
- Concentrated organic ginger root extract
- Naturally rich in gingerols and shogaols
- 100% pure — no fillers, additives or preservatives
- Vegan, non-GMO. Made in Canada from imported ingredients

- Sizes: 10 g, 15 g, 25 g, 50 g, 100 g, 250 g
Who it's for: tea and golden-milk drinkers, bakers and cooks who want ginger heat without the prep, and anyone who keeps fresh ginger in the fridge and keeps letting it go soft.
How to use: Add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon to warm water, tea, smoothies or a golden milk latte. It also works in baking and cooking. Start small — this is concentrated and it is potent.

Fruiting body vs Mycelium and Spores
There is a lot of discussion around which parts of the mushroom should be used for extraction. Here is a short explanation:
In mushrooms, the part that is typically used for extracting nutrients and compounds is the fruiting body, which is the visible part of the mushroom that emerges above ground. This is because the fruiting body contains most of the bioactive compounds, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other beneficial substances.
The fruiting body is rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds because it is where the reproductive structures of the mushroom develop. These structures contain various substances that the mushroom needs for growth and reproduction, as well as compounds that help defend against pathogens and predators.
However, it's worth noting that different parts of the mushroom may have different nutritional profiles and concentrations of bioactive compounds. For example, some mushrooms also produce mycelium, the underground network of fungal threads, which can also contain valuable nutrients and compounds. Additionally, certain species of mushrooms may have medicinal properties associated with specific parts of the organism, such as the mycelium or even the spores. Therefore, the specific part of the mushroom used for extraction can depend on the desired nutrients or compounds and the intended use.
We always use the fruiting body for our extracts but we are also working on developing special compound extracts from other parts like the mycelium and spores. Keep an eye on our blogs and subscribe to our newsletter to get notified of these advancements as they happen.
