In this study, we investigated the concentrations of Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb and Zn; and their associated health risks through consumption of ginger. After the ginger samples digested with a mixture of HNO 3 and HClO 4 at 200 C for 2:00 h, the amount of metals were investigated by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). Efficiency of the analytical measurement was validated on spiking the sample with standard solutions of metals and the recovery for all studied metals were ranged from 91.60% to 99.94%, which is in the acceptable range of validation. The mean concentrations (mg/kg) were ranged from 4.63 to 5.43 for Cd, 2.17 to 4.44 for Cr, 62.52 to 65.14 for Cu, 77.71 to 81.12 for Fe, 6.49-7.58 for Ni and 16.74-19.31 for Zn. However, the concentration of Pb was not detected. The estimated daily intake (EDI) values of all metals from all samples are substantially lower than their corresponding maximum tolerable daily intake (MTDI). Target hazardous quotient (THQ) values of all metals are lower than 1 in all the sampling sites, revealed that there are no health risks for the users due to the intake of these metals. The health index (HI) values were slightly higher than unity, which implying that there is significant health effects to the population from consuming ginger at the study.
