Contraindications:
People taking blood thinners (Coumadin, aspirin, etc.) should avoid Ginger, and the herb should be
avoided for two weeks prior to elective surgery. Pregnant women who use Ginger for morning sickness
should not take large amounts (many times the recommended dose) nor use it for prolonged periods
without consulting a physician. Ginger increases bile production and should not be used by people with
gallstones or gallbladder disease unless supervised by a doctor.
Those who suffer from allergies to members of the daisy family (ragweed) should consult a doctor or
allergist before using Chamomile. Chamomile contains natural blood thinners (coumarins) and should not
be taken by those using the prescription drug Coumadin or other blood thinners. Because Chamomile is a
uterine stimulant, pregnant women should discuss its use with their physicians before using it.
