    Many people are reluctant to throw away a little bit of rotten ginger. After rotten ginger, it will produce a highly toxic organic substance-safrole, which can degenerate liver cells and induce liver cancer and esophageal cancer. If you use rotten ginger in cooking, even though the amount is very small, it is toxic to liver cells, especially for patients with hepatitis, it should be avoided.
