Ginger root is also said to be good traditionally for relieving nausea, especially when related to flu or to pregnancy.

Volunteers prone to motion sickness tested the effects of powdered Ginger root capsules, Dramamine and a placebo while being spun around in a rotating chair for six minutes. Half of those taking Ginger root could stand the full six minutes of spinning; none of the Dramamine or placebo volunteers could stand the full time. The Ginger seems to work in the gastrointestinal tract to prevent nausea; one or two capsules every few hours should help.
