Scientists have long been puzzled by the “French paradox” – the surprising fact that the French eat more fatty foods than the American people, yet have better cardiovascular health. About a decade ago, researchers honed in on the French’s affinity for red wine as a possible explanation.

Ginger, Zingiber officinale, is one of the most widely consumed aromatic spices in the world, used in cooking and as a main ingredient in many traditional medicines. Known for its warming, anti-spasmodic, and carminative qualities on the digestive system, it has traditionally been used for nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dyspepsia and colic. Earlier studies found ginger to be effective in reducing nausea related to seasickness 1, motion sickness 2, and morning sickness associated with pregnancy 3.*
