Ginger and Nausea

Ginger is such a wonderful remedy for nausea…and is often one of the first things I recommend for morning sickness. It’s a remedy that has been proven to relieve the severity of nausea and be more effective than B6.

In clinical trials, the women experiencing the benefits often do so in the first 4 days of taking it! 

Making ginger tea, is as simple as grating some ginger root, placing it in a tea pot, pouring boiling water over it and leaving it steep for 10 minutes, then enjoying a cup! (Make enough so you can have 2-3 in one day.) 

And the good news... even the humble ginger biscuit has been proven to work…although the amount of biscuits used in the trial was 5 a day (!), (which amounts to a lot of sugar,) so please try the ginger tea first. 

For those who find the tea too hard and the biscuit to sweet, the Blackmores pregnancy product, Morning Sickness, is a good bet (take as directed). And if you’re still experiencing nausea, please get in touch with us for some more recommendations.
