Summary

This product contains a high percentage of ginger, which is beneficial for its anti-inflammatory properties. However, the inclusion of rapeseed oil, a seed oil that is often highly processed, and added sugar, which lacks nutritional value, detracts from its overall healthiness. The processing level further limits its potential score, as it is not minimally processed.
