Ginger is included as part of Move's inflammation support active ingredients.
Ginger contains naturally occurring bioactives such as gingerols and shogaols, which are studied for their role in inflammatory and oxidative-stress pathways. In dogs, ginger has been included in mobility-focused formulations evaluated for osteoarthritis support, including research showing improvements in inflammatory and oxidative-stress markers alongside chronic pain outcomes. Its role in the formula is to complement Boswellia and turmeric as part of a botanical approach to comfortable movement. Ginger is also traditionally used for digestive comfort and nausea, including motion sickness, though Move includes it specifically for its joint and antioxidant role rather than as a car-sickness remedy.
