Galangal

Galangal is an east asian tropical shrub with lance-like leaves, iris-like flowers, and reddish brown, woody rhizomes. It grows mainly in the eastern himalayas and southwest india, and was introduced to europe in the 9th century.
The name galangal is derived from the arabic khalanjan, referring to chinese ginger, whose family it is a member of. Galangal is an important herb in saudi herbal medicine.
It is used in many magical workings throughout the world. One reported use is that if you spit the juice from chewing this root on the floor of a courtroom before the judge enters, you will win the case.
Galangal powder is a commonly prescribed home remedy by homeopaths, veterinarians, other health care professionals, and natural healers. It is used to treat nausea, dyspepsia, flatulence, catarrh (inflammation of mucus membrane), rheumatism, and enteritis.
