Foodie Pantry will be closed today. I have been taking amoxicillin for the tooth extracton which has the side effects of extreme nausea and sleepiness. I cannot function without running to the bathroom and either retching or spitting up water. Sorry.
Hopefully things will be better by Monday,

The Healing Power of Food
We all know that food can cure a broken heart or the blues. We're also all well aware of the vitamins and antioxidants all the good foods contain to make us live longer and how our organs can benefit from them. However certain food can actually work at calming an upset stomach and soothing a cold. These are worth keeping in the house.
it always pays to have ginger around. This is great in combating nausea , morning sickness and that icky feeling you get when you have a virus. The Ginger People have a wide range of products. which you can ge t on their site or buy them at Amazon. my favorite product (which I even keep in the car is) are the Double Strength Gin Gins. These are wonderful hard candies that can be used anytime. You can even pop a few after dinner to relive that bloated , full feeling. Gin Gins are also good for a sore throat. The candy acts like a lozenge and the ginger helps with that itchy, raggedy feeling. They're also good , melting in a hot tea.
Another standby is the e lemon. My grandmother used to suck on them to relieve nausea as well.Freshly made, not too sweet lemonade is another natural way to cure queasiness and tummy upset. Lemon in hot tea is a good stomach ache and cold remedy . Always have some or a bottle of reconstituted lemon juice around. Another nausea stopper are plain soda crackers like Saltines. They're also the best thing to eat when you';re suffering from a hangover.
Just remember certain foods aren't just for curing a broken heart or helping you get through stress. They also act as medicines when you're just not feeling physically fit.

Foods To Soothe A Foodie's Tummy
A foodie's life may be a great one but he or she has to have a strong stomach. Our kind love everything from the spiciest to the iciest when it comes to food and drink. However our stomachs may not like what we eat. What to do? Well, there could be that ever present bottle of Tums or Rolaids or you can fight fire with fire. There are a few foods that settle a dyspeptic tummy.
Ginger is one of the best cures for any upset stomach or nausea. I always have some on hand that I can eat right from the canister or drop a cube or two into my tea. It's been soothing stomachs since the beginning of timeand was considered a digestive aid in Colonial America. Ginger ale, beer or tea is perfect for anyone suffering through a bad stomach flu. The ginger will stop and settle the nauseous feelings while the sugar and liquid stave off any dehydration. Ginger is also good for curing motion sickness so have it in the car for long trips. You can buy the Ginger People's Ginger Chews for this. One or two taken with hot or cold tea should do the trick.
I found that peppermint is another good tummy soother. I always have a tin of the uber mints, Altoids in my bag. These little dynamos have gotten me through some greasy, spicy meals and their aftereffects for the years.Peppermint is good in tea and help a roiled stomach after a big lunch or dinner. Have a box of it at the ready for just such occasions. It may be a little daunting if you have some kin d of stomach bug however. Use it in moderation if you feel a little off. Ginger is the better choice here.
Don't reach for the Tums or Rolaids right away if you're not feeling quite right. Try the foodie remedy of all natural ginger or peppermint to cure an upset stomach. You'll feel better . Trust me.
