Simple carbs and ginger are both stomach settling, so I think these cookies are fab for settling the tummy at sea. I despise ginger, but I think these cookies are yum. It is the only gingery
food I have found that I will actually eat. And, the best part is, if they don't
work and your tummy is still upset, they taste just as good going the other direction! I got the recipe from
