BellaOnline Forums Health and Fitness Stomach Issues Ginger Products

Ginger is a great herb that helps with upset tummies. Does anyone have any ginger products they would recommend?

I love the Ginger Twist tea by Mighty Leaf Tea Co. I bought some Ginger chews at a coffee shop on a recent vacation but I am unable to locate them online. My husband also saw some Ginger Altoids one time in a store but we have been unable to find them again.

Any good Ginger resources would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Kay,

Do you find that cinnamon helps, too? Here is my article with Stomach Rhythm recipes. They contain either cinnamon or ginger.

Shay,

I have not tried cinnamon. My problem is nausea rather than heartburn. Do you think the cinnamon would help with nausea? I'm definitely willing to try it.

Your recipe for apple pancakes sounds wonderful. I can't wait to try it. I like that you have included using Quinoa flour. I am a big fan of Quinoa in any form.

Thanks!
Kay

Hi Kay,

Yes, cinnamon is known to calm nausea. Do let me know if you decide to give it at try. Many people swear by it.

I hope you enjoy the apple pancake recipe - Quinoa is slowly making a comeback, it seems.

I wonder, do you have any other symptoms besides the nausea?

I keep candied ginger with me all the time and we take it when we travel for indigestion problems. Peppermint pills also help.

World market has a selection of ginger chews if you have one of those nearby.

Oh I LOVE ginger - but it gives me heartburn, along with my other favorite - peppermint

I feel your pain, Deanna! Yummy ginger and peppermint also give me a terrible flare-up. Have you tried papaya enzymes for reflux? I find that it usually helps me...

I tried them years ago and I was so gassy LOL! And not gassy and bloated - but gassy and NOISY if ya know what I mean HA HA HA!

Do you take them right before a meal or with it?

Thanks!

Oh, my! LOL! I haven't heard of papaya having that particular effect before, but I'm always learning new things...

Great article Shay! And I'm convinced - I'll get some papaya tabs this week
