Ever had an older family member suggest drinking ginger or peppermint tea when you're feeling nauseous? Turns out they have the right idea. Combining these two powerful nausea-fighting ingredients might be your key to a more restful night.
Peppermint is nature's special gift to get your digestion back on track (via Everyday Health). Research has proven that peppermint can be used in alleviating the discomfort of indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome, and pain in the lower gut. It makes sense that including the stomach-pleasing herb as an oil in your aromatherapy session could have you seeing improvement of your nausea.
Ginger is another highly recommended ingredient. This familiar and flavorful plant has been used in a variety of forms for ages to soothe tumultuous tummies. A study conducted to test the effectiveness of ginger essential oil in combating nausea found that instances of nausea and vomiting were significantly lower in the group that inhaled the essential oil.
