Natural Remedies for Motion Sickness

Is motion sickness preventing you from enjoying your family vacation, or playing up to that cute girl in the next cabin? Until recently, travelers with sensitive bellies would simply pop a synthetic pill an hour before the trip commences, or paste on a bandaid-type patch behind the ear half a day before the trip.  We also heard of relief bands that send electronic signals to stimulate nerves in the wrist, which interfere with nausea messages enroute to the body.

In this age when natural medicine is seriously becoming a threat to traditional medical doctor’s existence, a number of natural remedies and preventive actions fortunately have proven themselves much more efficient, and almost free.

* Avoid loading up on a heavy meal before you set out on your trip.

* Pick the seat least affected by motion: up front in a car, over a wing on a plane, or midship on a boat.

* Avoid nausea triggers such as alcohol, cigarette smoke, and intense odors, as well as watching movies or reading while on the move.

* Get some air: crack a window, turn on a vent, or get out onto the boat’s deck.

* Aura Cacia Peppermint Essential Oil – take a whiff when there’s motion in the ocean; peppermint’s a time-tested stomach soother ($6).

* Solaray Ginger Root – pop a couple organic ginger capsules to settle your belly ($5).
