Sunthi is not just dry ginger, it has been processed multiple times in lime (stone) water to remove some of the agni (heat). Bhava Prakash describes it as amavataghni (helping arthritis) and vibandhanut (helping constipation).

Add one small chunk of sunthi to your one or two liters of herbal tea mixuture given to you by your Shaka Vansya Ayurveda practitioner and sip throughout the day.

Since I have a high Yang issue now it is wonderful to use this less heating type of ginger for my health issues such as headaches and body pain from RA.
Thanks to Divya Alter for recommending Chandika in one of her fantastic books.
