C Evidencia Evidencia limitada de estudios pequeños, pero existen algunas señales positivas.

Meta-analysis found ginger supplementation reduced fasting glucose and HOMA-IR in overweight/obese adults. A 12-week RCT (n=80) found 2 g/day improved insulin sensitivity. Anti-inflammatory (NF-kB) and TRPV1-mediated effects are the proposed mechanisms.
