Ginger Supreme (Organic Ginger CO2 Extract + Turmeric), 60 Vegan Liquid Phyto-Caps Review
#8 of 9 · CO2 Craft Extract✓ Label verified · Supplement Facts read Sep 7, 2026Real retailer photo, cut out. Label unedited.
Consider it. Premium CO2 craft extract with traceability — but the ginger dose is low. Supercritical CO2 extraction and batch-level traceability make this the most artisanal pick.

Why It Scores 6.1 — And The Label Line Behind Each Number
Form, Bioavailability & Standardization
25% of score
Supercritical CO2 extraction preserves the volatile gingerols and shogaols better than heat- or solvent-based methods, delivered in a liquid phyto-cap. On extraction quality, it’s the best on the list. No gingerol percentage, but Meet-Your-Herbs batch traceability lets you look up the specific lot’s lab ID — a distinctive transparency feature, if not a standardization figure.
- Form
- Supercritical CO2 liquid phyto-cap (ginger + turmeric)
- Standardization
- None labeled; CO2 extract preserves gingerols/shogaols
Dose vs. Clinical Range
25% of score
The decisive weakness: ~150mg ginger per cap is roughly one-seventh of the ~1g studied nausea dose. Even several caps struggle to reach the clinical range, and it’s diluted with turmeric.
- Dose
- 150mg ginger CO2 extract + 25mg turmeric per cap
Third-Party Testing & Purity
20% of score
Gaia’s Meet-Your-Herbs program provides batch-level lab identity and traceability, one of the more consumer-transparent QC systems in the category.
- Testing
- Meet-Your-Herbs batch traceability (lab ID per lot)
Tolerability & Safety
15% of score
A vegan, gluten/dairy/soy-free liquid phyto-cap that reads as a gentle daily for digestive comfort; the low per-cap ginger amount keeps it easy on the stomach but is also why it can’t reach a therapeutic dose.
Value
15% of score
~$20 for 60 caps of low-dose ginger is expensive per milligram of ginger. You’re paying for extraction craft and traceability, not quantity.
- Count
- 60 capsules
- Cost per cap
- ~$0.33

Marketing Claims Vs. Reality
CO2 extraction preserves active compounds
Supercritical CO2 extraction is a low-heat, solvent-free method well documented to preserve volatile gingerols and shogaols better than heat-based extraction.
Batch-level traceability
Gaia’s Meet-Your-Herbs program lets buyers enter a batch ID to view that lot’s identity and testing — a genuine, distinctive transparency feature.
Delivers a therapeutic nausea dose
At ~150mg ginger per cap, it’s far below the ~1g used in nausea trials (Viljoen 2014; Ryan 2012). The absolute ginger amount is too low for the studied anti-emetic effect.
What Our Test Actually Found
Best process, wrong dose
On extraction quality and traceability, Gaia is arguably the finest-made product here. But supplements are dosed in milligrams, and 150mg of ginger can’t do what 1000mg does for nausea. Craft doesn’t substitute for quantity.
A digestion-and-inflammation daily, not a nausea tool
The ginger-plus-turmeric pairing reads as a gentle daily for digestive comfort and mild inflammation support. That’s a reasonable use — just don’t reach for it when you’re acutely queasy.

- Supercritical CO2 extraction preserves pungent gingerols/shogaols
- Batch-level Meet-Your-Herbs traceability with lab IDs
- Organic ginger paired with turmeric for digestion + inflammation
- Vegan, gluten/dairy/soy-free liquid phyto-cap
- Only ~150mg ginger per cap — far below the ~1g nausea dose
- Expensive per milligram of ginger; blended with turmeric
- Supercritical CO2 extraction preserves pungent gingerols/shogaols
- Batch-level Meet-Your-Herbs traceability with lab IDs
- Organic ginger paired with turmeric for digestion + inflammation
- Only ~150mg ginger per cap — far below the ~1g nausea dose
- Expensive per milligram of ginger; blended with turmeric
Supercritical CO2 extraction and batch-level traceability make this the most artisanal pick. But ~150mg ginger per cap is well below the nausea range, and it’s a ginger-turmeric blend. Buy it for a quality digestion/inflammation daily, not for acute nausea.
Gaia Herbs makes the craft-extract pick: a supercritical CO2 ginger extract that preserves the pungent gingerols and shogaols, paired with turmeric, in a vegan liquid phyto-cap with batch-level Meet-Your-Herbs traceability. It’s the best-sourced product on the list on process quality. The problem is quantity — at ~150mg ginger per capsule, it sits far below the ~1g used in nausea trials, and it’s blended with turmeric. As a well-crafted digestion-and-inflammation daily, it’s lovely; as a therapeutic nausea dose, it simply doesn’t deliver enough ginger.
Consider it as a craft digestion daily, not a nausea remedy
If you want a beautifully sourced, traceable ginger-turmeric daily for general digestive and mild anti-inflammatory support, Gaia delivers on quality. But the low ginger dose means it can’t match the anti-nausea picks above it. Buy it for what it is, not for acute queasiness.
If This Doesn’t Fit — Try These
01Pure Encapsulations Ginger Extract
If you want the highest confidence that you’re taking a real, measurable dose of ginger’s active compounds, this is the pick.
02Nature’s Way Ginger Root
The best choice for people who want a real, on-label ~1g dose without paying extract prices.
Quick Answers
Is a CO2 extract stronger than a regular extract?
It preserves the active compounds better, but strength still depends on how much you take. At ~150mg per cap, the high-quality extraction can’t compensate for the low ginger dose.
Can I just take more capsules to reach 1g?
You’d need six-plus caps for the ginger alone, which is impractical and expensive, and you’d also be loading turmeric. It’s not designed as a high-dose nausea product.
