Ginger is the herbal with the strongest claim to a real benefit: easing nausea. It also settles digestion and warms you up, and being caffeine-free it suits any time of day.
Nausea, the strong one
Ginger has good evidence for easing nausea, from travel sickness to general queasiness. A weak, fresh brew is the practical dose. See Wikipedia: ginger and our tea for nausea guide.
Digestion and warmth
Ginger helps move food through the stomach, easing that overfull feeling after a heavy meal, and its natural warmth is comforting when you are cold or run down. See tea for digestion.
Sensible limits
Very strong ginger can irritate the stomach for some, so keep it gentle. It is a comfort and support, not a treatment for a medical condition.
FAQ
Is ginger tea good for you? Yes, especially for nausea and digestion; it is caffeine-free.
Does it help travel sickness? Yes, ginger is well evidenced for it.
How much? A weak cup as needed; go easy if strong ginger bothers your stomach.
