Can treat many forms of nausea, especially morning sickness

Ginger appears to be a powerful anti-nausea treatment. It may help those who are having certain types of surgery with nausea and vomiting. Ginger may also help with nausea caused by chemotherapy, although further human researchs are needed.

It may be the most helpful for nausea caused by pregnancy, such as morning sickness. A study of 12 research with a total of 1,278 pregnant women found that 1.1–1.5 grams of ginger can considerably improve nausea symptoms. However, this study found that ginger had no effect on vomiting episodes. Although ginger is safe, if you're pregnant, consult your doctor before taking high doses. Ginger is not suggested for pregnant women who are approaching labor or have suffered miscarriages. Ginger is also not recommended if you have a history of vaginal bleeding or clotting problems.
