The objective of this study was to determine the level of awareness concerning the knowledge of the benefits and use of ginger among students of the Nigerian Army School of Education (NASE), Sobi-Ilorin Kwara State. A descriptive survey design was used to elucidate the awareness, knowledge of benefits and practice of ginger usage. The population included all 350 students from NASE, Ilorin. They were purposively selected, with 337 participating in the study. The instrument for data collection was a validated researcher-structured questionnaire. Test retest reliability was conducted and PPMC coefficient (r=0.72) was obtained. Frequency and percentage were used for demographic data while t-test was used for testing the hypotheses at 0.05 alpha level. The result revealed that NASE, Ilorin students were highly aware of the benefits of ginger, 312 (92.6%). There was significant difference between soldiers and officers in; awareness n=337, t (335)=4.94, p<0.001, η2 .007; health benefits n=337, t (335)=2.92, p < 0.004, η2 .002 and performance purposes n=337, t (335)=2.48, p<0.001, η2 .002. It was concluded that the majority of NASE students are aware of ginger, which they mainly consumed in drinks. A further study is necessary to ascertain the size of benefits and the best way ginger usage would enhance the health and job performance of military personnel.
