Nothing has worked as well! You can also pour hot water over the crystallized kind to make a drink and it dilutes the flavor a little bit if you think it's too strong. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-for-heartburn#post-253284 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 14:41:05 +0000 Foodnerd81 253284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So this wasn't actual candied ginger, just... ginger flavored candy? I feel stupid typing that. But I have candied ginger from Trader Joe's, for nauseau (non preg) that is REALLY ginger-y, and I really like ginger and find it really strong. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-for-heartburn#post-253257 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 14:24:41 +0000 ladyfingers 253257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@WALLAROO: I didn't think it was, no. It just basically tastes like a ginger-flavored candy... but if you hate ginger, you probably won't like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-for-heartburn#post-253194 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:27:04 +0000 WALLAROO 253194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is the ginger flavor really strong? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-for-heartburn#post-253125 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 12:39:36 +0000 MrsCastro 253125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i had bought my dad a stash of these for when we would have nausea after chemo...i guess i will have to raid his stash... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ginger-for-heartburn#post-253088 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 12:07:17 +0000 ladyfingers 253088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could kiss my pregnant friend for giving me a couple of ginger candies last night. She's also 14 weeks along and I was complaining about my horrible heartburn. She carries around a bag of Gin Gins and I had one last night and this morning, both times with heartburn, and both times it went away almost instantly and stayed away for a while! I've tried Tums and Pepcid, not eating certain things, not drinking while eating, and not laying down after eating and this is the only thing that's worked so far. Woot! </p>
