Ginger Eases Morning Sickness

 

“Ginger root provides relief from morning sickness in the first months of pregnancy,” says the Australian newspaper. Research conducted by the University of South Australia found that taking approximately one gram of ginger a day reduced morning sickness among newly pregnant women. Ginger is a traditional treatment for morning sickness in many places. However, its effectiveness was not established scientifically. The study found that ginger works just as well as a daily dose of vitamin B₆, another commonly prescribed remedy.
