Ginger is commonly used to help relieve morning sickness during pregnancy.
Most experts consider small amounts (around 1 gram daily) safe for nausea relief.
However, high-dose supplements may not be recommended for everyone—especially during early pregnancy or for individuals with a history of bleeding complications.
Pregnant women should always consult their OB-GYN before using ginger supplements.
