Why people make this tea
A friend back from travelling brought me some sugar-preserved pomelo peel and a fingered citron. The candied pomelo peel comes in strips you can dice and eat like a sweet preserve. Pomelo peel is traditionally used to resolve phlegm, ease a cough, regulate the qi and relieve discomfort. Candied pomelo peel is traditionally taken for travel-sickness queasiness and vomiting, or for a sluggish, off-feeling stomach during a cold. This pomelo peel and ginger tea is traditionally used to warm the centre, resolve phlegm, aid digestion and settle nausea — a gentle helper for an upset stomach.
What studies say about the key ingredients
Traditional use is not the same as clinical proof. Here is the strongest human research we found for each ingredient, limitations included.
- Ginger
Overall, acute and delayed nausea and vomiting did not differ significantly between ginger and control groups. A subgroup taking 1 g/day or less for over four days had less acute vomiting (OR 0.30).Limitation: Clinical heterogeneity between trials required subgroup analyses, and the authors state that sufficiently large, high-quality RCTs are still needed.PubMed 36501010 · 3 more ginger studies
