As tea, in candy, as essential oils, or in other preparations, ginger and peppermint have been shown to reduce nausea, even as a result of morning sickness (ginger) and irritable bowel syndrome (peppermint). Ginger is a more effective seasickness remedy than homeopathic spray, wrist bands, electric shocks on accupressure points, or a placebo (MythBusters confirmed it!).
