I used to dread travelling by plane, I was eiher nauseated or would have a horrible dizzy disoriented feeling each time the plane hit some turbulence. My doctor prescribed something to help me sleep practically the whole flight...then I read somewhere that ginger had anti motion sickness properties. I tried 2 capsules half an hour before my flight, and it didn't matter what manoevre the plane took, I felt fine! Now I never leave home without my friend Ginger.
