I want to answer this side effect comment. I do juicing also with ginger. Large amount of fresh ginger juice can cause headache! I had the same experience. It depends how much ginger you put in the vegetable juice I use 1/2" pc to a cup of carrots juice that amount never cause any headache.


Ginger Juice Side Effects
Posted by Rosy (Orlando, Fl) on 01/24/2009

I have just started juicing with my fantastic new toy, and I am having a lot of fun with the mixes I can make. I am mostly sticking to fruit and carrot combos at the moment, as I was advised to juice things I normally eat at first. I have been juicing for two weeks and have had an odd reaction. Every time I add ginger to a fresh juice I get a headache soon after that lasts all day. It is in the frontal lobe are on the left side of my head. This happens every time. I also feel unwell, not nauseous, but not good either. I get warmer like I have a fever, but not one that registers. I have tried to look up detox and ginger and found nothing. Any one has any suggestions. Also I only drink one glass of juice a day and only have it in the morning, so I don't confuse my belly.
