Upset stomach eased by ginger
Submitted by Zulema Blizinsky
Upset stomach from almost any cause can be removed - or at least eased - by taking ginger, and it can be taken in several forms:
- A slice of raw ginger root can be chewed, but be careful because it is considered a "hot" spice;
- The ginger root can be shredded into a food being cooked, as in stir fry;
- Ground ginger (found in the spice section of any supermarket) can be used to make a tea - boil a half cup of water, add a heavy pinch of ground ginger, add honey to taste, stir - the nausea will dissipate after only a few sips;
- Candied ginger can be chewed, and while not as effective as ginger tea, it is easily carried in a purse or pocket (in a small baggie, not loose).
