A member asked:

I am wondering what herbs are good for food poisoning like illnesses?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Homoeopathy: The homeopathic remedy arsenicum album is fabulous for food poisoning like symptoms when you are going at both ends. Ginger tea can help soothe the stomach and acupuncture / acupressure can also work well.
