Lack of energy and nutrients could adversely affect the mother and fetus. Nausea and vomiting is a common problem in the first trimester of pregnancy. If not treated the mother and fetus can be at risk of malnutrition due to lack of energy intake. Traditional treatment is an option that is considered safe. Ginger has been used to treat a variety of medical problems including nausea and vomiting. Ginger works in the digestive tract by increasing the gastric and intestinal motility.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of instant ginger containing 290 mg ginger juice, to reduced the incidence of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy and increased maternal energy intake during the 24 hours.
