Remedies
Ginger: according to a study funded by the National Cancer Institute, ginger cut nausea in half in a group of 644 cancer patients studied. Peel a piece of fresh ginger root and steep it in hot water to make a tea or take a ginger capsule (about 1g of ginger root) with a glass of water. Peppermint: aids digestions, relieves gas, irritable bowel syndrome, cramps, diarrhea, indigestion and food poisoning. Brew some peppermint tea and for extra effect, combine with ginger root. Chamomile: the oil derived from its flowers can help reduce muscle spasms and inflammation of mucus membranes. Brew some tea and combine with peppermint or ginger as desired. Rice water: boil ½ cup of white rice in 1 cup water for 15 minutes, drain water from rice, wait for it to cool and drink rice water. This is an Ayurvedic as well as western remedy. Cumin seeds: aid digestion and eases gas and bloating. Take ½ teaspoon of ground cumin seeds with some water or tea Cloves: relieve nausea and vomiting. Throw a few into hot water to make an infusion and drink. Vomit: don’t leave the irritant in your stomach. Stick your (clean) finger down your throat and let the contents of your stomach come out. Sleep on right side: there will be less pressure on the stomach this way and will prevent it from being squashed. Acupuncture: a study of over 3,300 cases found that acupuncture relieved nausea in 80% of patients after surgery. Chew your food thoroughly, as this will make it easier to digest, and don’t overeat.
