my mother is very sick with ovarian cancer, if she can not drink the ginger, in what other way, can i given to her??
if i put some ginger outside on the surface of her belly, to her skin , will these pass to her body and and have a chance reduse the tunors?

If she can eat tiny bits of crystalized ginger it will help with nausea -- I never heard of it doing anything for the OVCA

no, the ginger used in the study was applied in vitro (in 'test tubes' essentially) and not in vivo (in a person or living being), so the science is not sure if it will actually work.  In-fact, many things tested in vitro have profound effects on ovarian cancer, but when used in vivo it doesn't always pan out.

regarding the absorption to the tumors, it's unlikely.  Basically the ginger would have to pass through too many layers to even reach the abdominal cavity where the tumors are to be of any effect, and by that time it would not have the same consistency.  

sorry :(

I'm sorry that your Mom is suffering from OVCA. What syntopms does she have?  I don't think only ginger can reduce the tumor size, You really need to see a dr to have some medication to make her more comfortable.  Best wish!

Peace and Love
