Nausea cloves

Traditional Medicine. Cloves are used as a carminative, antiemetic, and counterirritant. Clove tea is used to relieve nausea. Clove oil is also used as an antiemetic as well as in relieving toothache. 

In Chinese medicine cloves are used as a kidney tonic (especially for impotence associated with deficient yang), to warm the body, increase circulation and as a digestive aid. They are also used for nausea, vomiting, flatulence, hiccups, stomach chills, fever, caries, toothache, cholera, colic, cracked nipples, diarrhoea, dyspepsia, halitosis (chewing on the whole clove), unusual uterine bleeding, nasal polyps and impotence. The root is used for a weaker effect. The oil is employed for diarrhoea, halitosis, hernia, nausea and toothache. 

Fresh cloves Eat 1 clove up to 3 times a day for prevention. The cloves may be diced and mixed with honey for palatabilty and to reduce nausea. During acute episodes, 3 to 9 bulhs a day are reportedly being used by some clinicians. (They report that the best way is to juice the bulbs and drink with carrot or tomato juice. Caution See Side Effects and Contraindications.)... 

No adverse reactions to clove have been reported in the normal dosage range (a decoction of 1-3 g). Overdose of clove has resulted in symptoms of nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Cases of severe overdoses have been reported to cause changes in liver function, difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness, or death (Bensky et al. 2004).
