If you suffer from motion sickness, ginger pills will stop the sickness without all the side effects of the medication. I saw it on Mythbusters last weekend. We are so trying it next time!

Hey pumouse...I saw that show!

Wish I'd had those on the first two days of my cruise

I read that eating a banana before riding M:S will work.

I love that show. Those 2 guys sure have a great time trying out all those theories!

**MissDisney** · 11-23-2005

Mythbusters is so great! Do those guys have the best jobs ever, or what!

oh, and BTW, you can avoid motion sickness 100% pf the time if you avoid all manner of trasnportation, including tea cups and coasters!

I like Mary Ann over Ginger...

Oh, wait... You mean the spice... SORRY! I thought this was about Gilligan's Island...

Seriously, that is a pretty cool idea. I may get some of those for my family on our DL trip, so we avoid any motion sickness... THANKS!

pumouse · 11-23-2005

I love that show also! And for those of you who have not seen that episode, they tested alot of remedies and this one was the only one that worked besides the medication.

You should try it. The one guy got so sick on the sick maker thing, and this totally worked for him.

Sungold · 11-25-2005

I didn't know you could purchase ginger pills. Where would you buy them...are they available in places like GNC? Thanks!

missy H · 11-25-2005

My DH gets motion sickness. He hates the teacups and puts up with star tours and did M:S once and got sick. Maybe these will help.

I won't take them because I don't like ginger.

missy H · 11-25-2005
