The aromatic spices: cardamom, ginger, cinnamon and pimento are herbal all stars in relieving nausea, motion sickness, and morning sickness in pregnancy. Spearmint and peppermint are no slouches either, it really depends on what works best for you, there is a wide range of carminative herbs to choose from. You can quickly quell an upset stomach by sipping a cup of soothing herbal tea, using the essential oils in abdominal massage or simply taking a quick whiff of essential oil. Many bitter herbs help prevent stomach upset from occurring in the first place by improving digestion and can be taken in small amounts before or after meals.

This aids and speeds up the digestion of fat and protein, which increases the energy we get from food as well as decreasiong gastric upset. Gentian is also useful for gastro-intestinal inflammation (one of its alkaloids, gentianine, has been shown to be anti-inflammatory).,
