Suitable for use during pregnancy
Clinical trials have also shown that ginger provides effective relief by reducing the degree of nausea and incidence of vomiting, with no side effects being observed.
Includes vitamin B6 at the dose used in clinical trials where severe nausea and vomiting were significantly reduced.


How it works

Women suffering from hyperemesis gravidum (the most severe form of morning sickness) were given the powdered ginger root (in tablet form) in a randomised double-blind cross-over trial in 1990. The dose used was 250 mg four times per day. The researchers concluded that there was a significant reduction in both the severity of nausea and number of attacks of vomiting experienced. All evidence confirms the safety of ginger in pregnancy provided normal doses are consumed.
In a randomised, double-blind placebo controlled trial pregnant women were given 25 mg of vitamin B6 every 8 hours for a period of 3 days. Again, the results showed a significant reduction in severe nausea and vomiting, and no side-effects were experienced.
