Raw and boiled ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) inclusive diet improves fertility parameters in high cholesterol diet-induced obese rats

This study found that both raw and boiled ginger-supplemented diets improved sexual function in obese rats by modulating metabolic hormones, sperm parameters, steroidogenic enzymes, and reproductive hormones, with the boiled ginger treatment outperforming the raw ginger treatment. As a result, we believe that boiled ginger, in addition to its effect on body weight regulation, may be useful in the treatment of obesity-induced male reproductive problems.
