Use ginger - Cruise trip tip

by Rita Sanders (RSS feed) on Jan 21st 2010 at 6:41PM

Pack ginger.

Have you tried wrist bands and/or patches to soothe a queasy, seasick stomach and found they didn't work? Here is a tried-and-true herbal remedy:

Thirty days before the cruise, start taking 2 ginger tablets every day.
Seven days before the cruise, begin taking 1 non-drowsy Dramamine along with the ginger tablets.
During the cruise, continue taking the ginger and Dramamine.

This should help resolve any sea sickness during a cruise. Happy Sailing!
