First, Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) was completed by all patients. Then the intervention group, received one gram of GINGER daily and the control group PLACEBO for 4 weeks. At the end of this period, the GSRS was completed again by the patients and the obtained data were compared.Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the total score of GASTROINTESTINAL SYMPTOMS before intervention in the two groups (P=0.026). Therefore, to compare the mean score of the questionnaire after intervention in the two groups, the analysis of covariance was used with controlling the effect of confounding mean score of the pre-treatment questionnaire, which showed that the mean score of the post-treatment questionnaire was significantly different in the two groups (P=0.0001).Conclusion: Given the effect of GINGER on improving symptoms of IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME, using GINGER in these patients is recommended to reduce symptoms.
