Ginger is a well known anti-nausea agent.
Ginger has also long been recognized as an excellent respiratory remedy, useful against colds, flu, and bronchitis. Its anti-inflammatory, antiasthmatic, and antihistaminic effects are well established, and its cough-suppressant value rivals that of codeine. Use ginger tea for a sore throat and cold.
Ginger Tea:
Add a half teaspoon of grated fresh ginger to 8 oz. of boiling water, cover and steep for 10 to 15 minutes. (The longer it steeps, the stronger the tea.) Strain and add honey or maple syrup to taste.
