I take adrak in my tea and sometimes for nausea, but heard somewhere too much ginger is not good in pregnancy. now im confused. how much is ok? anyone know?
Our elders often use dry ginger in home remedies, but I made sure to ask my doctor first. She said fresh ginger in small amounts is great for morning sickness, but to avoid high-dose ginger supplements.
I'm in my 2nd trimester and I still worry about eating ginger-heavy foods. Did anyone else get worried about herbal ingredients early on, or did your gynac say it is totally fine?
I was extremely cautious after my previous miscarriage and avoided anything 'hot' like excess ginger. However, my doctor reassured me that a small amount in your daily tea is perfectly safe and won't cause any harm.
Not at all, ginger is a lifesaver for nausea. I had ginger ale and ginger tea throughout my early pregnancy and my baby is perfectly healthy. Just use it in moderation.
At my hospital, the dietician clearly told me that up to 1 gram of ginger a day is completely fine for nausea. If you are ever unsure, just call your hospital's helpline or ask your doctor during your visit.
When I was staying at my mom's place, she used to put just a tiny slice of ginger in my morning chai to soothe my nausea. In normal food and tea, ginger is very gentle and safe.
Honestly, ginger tea was the only thing keeping me alive during my first trimester nausea! It is perfectly safe in normal amounts, just don't start eating ginger by the kilo.
