Yes: Ginger has many health benefits- it's a powerful anti-inflammatory ; anti-oxidant, soothes the stomach, treats nausea, morning sickness ; motion sickness ; can help heartburn, it is safe to use regularly in pregnancy, even daily- it is often used for morning sickness. There are no known problems using cloves and pepper in pregnancy as well. See http://huff.To/1chj0b9 ; http://bit.Ly/1akogla.
