A new study by the National Cancer Institute found that among chemotherapy patients who suffered from nausea, most reported that they got at least some relief from their symptoms from ginger. The rest reported that they got relief from Mary Ann.
Ginger has been used as a folk remedy for nausea for centuries, this is among the first of scientific studies to test a homeopathic treatment. Traditionally, Western medicine has been demonstratively homeo-phobic.
The ginger also had no significant side effects, though some complained of a cleansed palette.
The study pleased both doctors and patients, but offended some freckled redheads.
