Are Gravol ginger tablets safe during pregnancy? I want to take the most natural option possible, not Diclectin.

Yes, Gravol Ginger can be safe to use during pregnancy for nausea. It is a natural product that is approved by Health Canada with its own Natural Product Number (NPN). The recommended doses for preventing nausea are 500-1000mg per day. There have been no demonstrated negative effects on the developing fetus. However, it is always best to consult with a healthcare professional and consider other alternative methods for managing nausea during pregnancy as well, such as eating crackers or dry toast in the morning, eating smaller and more frequent meals, avoiding spicy and greasy foods, and not skipping meals.
