More Spices
One of the oldest and easiest ways to combat recurring nausea is using several spices in preparing meals. In addition, civilizations worldwide have anecdotal evidence claiming the effectiveness of spices as alternative medicines. As mentioned earlier in the article, ginger is one of the most famous nausea-fighting spices. However, more spices, like fennel powder, cumin extract, and cinnamon, are proven equally effective.
Fennel powder comes from fennel seeds and reduces acid reflux, belching, and indigestion. It is also used to improve blood circulation, which helps alleviate nausea. It also has impressive antibacterial properties that help relieve pain and discomfort in the digestive tract, which usually leads to dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. In addition, fennel powder is helpful for women who have nausea caused by pregnancy or menstruation.
Recent studies prove that cinnamon tea and powder effectively reduce menstrual bleeding, vomiting, and nausea. Like ginger, cinnamon also helps relax muscles and improve blood flow and digestion, which are all connected to nausea and vomiting. In addition, cinnamon is also used to alleviate nausea caused by medications and chemotherapy.
Cumin extract also helps alleviate nausea caused by digestive problems like constipation, diarrhea, IBS, and abdominal pain.
