Wow... okay, call me a whimp.... but the ONLY way ginger root makes you feel better is because, it knocks you out, and BEATS the sick out of you!
If you don't believe me, TRY IT.
Duuuude

I drink Ginger tea, but it burns my mouth and throat too much. I've never found it to do much good for my nausea. Chamomile works much better. Or eating whatever I'm craving-- especially if I'm craving Mexican, which seems to be happening a lot lately.
It's a weird looking vegetable - I work at a grocery store, so I see it now and then. PLU 4612, if anybody cares, other than me. 
Here's a link with a picture, for those who might have a better idea of what it is if they see it.

I can't imagine eating ginger root...
Crystallized ginger is much less pungent (not that that means much) and helps majorly with sick stomachs. So, to a lesser extent, do Saltines. If anyone cared.

anytime I think I might be coming down with a cold or something, I put a bit of water in a cup and then turn the Cayenne Pepper shaker upside down over it...
and then I drink it
very effective

cayenne pepper prevents it from ever happening in the first place...

And that's saying a lot, because I don't like the taste of Cold-Eeze.

Yeah, it's effective but the taste is absolutely awful... I get colds a ton, but have only used it once or twice. :/Karin Doyle wrote:I'd choose Cold-Eeze over Cayenne pepper any day. :xx:
