A relative of the ginger family, this warming herb can be used in similar ways to ginger, especially for nausea, travel sickness and indigestion.
Stimulant and carminative. It is especially useful in flatulence, dyspepsia, vomiting and sickness at stomach, being recommended as a remedy for sea-sickness. It tones up the tissues and is sometimes prescribed in fever. Homoeopaths use it as a stimulant. Galangal is used in cattle medicine, and the Arabs use it to make their horses fiery. It is included in several compound preparations, but is not now often employed alone.
At high doses, galangal could be irritating to the digestive system.
