Does Too Much Ginger Make You Sick?

I'm sitting here in my office trying to distract myself from the nausea. I had lunch about 2 hours ago and made the mistake of eating a chunk of ginger root that was in the meal. I can add some grated ginger to season a meal, but something like a chunk (1/2" square by 1/8" thick) in a sitting makes me sick.

I found out I had a problem with ginger years ago drinking ginger honey tea. I got terrible indigestion. So I know better. I don't know what I was thinking when I ate it...I'll attriubute to my fatigue and fog brain :(

I can't have ANY amount of ginger. It makes me incredibly nauseous. I can't stop throwing up, shaking, sweating and I get extremely dizzy. There have been times where I almost passed out. I discovered I couldn't have ginger about 8 years ago when I was on the way to the airport to fly back home. I couldn't stop vomiting in the airport and plane. Oh it was horrible.

I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. :( I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks CC :)

I was fine a couple hours or so later. Boy, I won't do that for a while again. Well, hopefully never again!

Gosh, you really have a terrible reaction to it. It's one thing to be home and sick, but to feel that way when you're traveling!! How terrible!!

If I have ginger cookies I get a ginger tongue. It feels like I've hot drink...scalded tongue. Ginger ale I seem to be okay...maybe it's diluted enough but in food...no way.

      Symptoms & waiting on blood test results

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Jaylan! Almost all of the symptoms and medical conditions you describe have been found to be associated with celiac disease. But they can also be caused by other things as well. There certainly is enough circumstantial evidence in your list of medical problems to warrant being tested for celiac disease. Ask your physician to order a celiac panel consisting of, at the very minimum, these two blood antibody tests: total IGA and tTG-IGA. Please do not attempt to limit your gluten intake before the blood draw is taken or you will invalidate the testing. Incidentally, celiac disease is often misdiagnosed as IBS.

      Symptoms & waiting on blood test results

      By Jaylan · Posted

      Hi there!  I’ve recently been tested for celiac disease, along with other autoimmune diseases. My symptoms started back in 2018 with joint pain in my knees. Since then, it has progressively worsened. I now have joint pain in both knees, elbows, and sometimes my shoulders. The pain is almost unbearable. I feel so stiff in the mornings, and this stiffness can last the whole day. I also experience swelling and warmth around those areas.   Other symptoms include IBS (diagnosed at age 16), restless legs, chest pain, tiredness, miscarriages, bloating, and sharp pain on the right side of my stomach. In the past, I’ve also had problems with a vitamin D deficiency, and my serum folate levels recently came back very low.   My question is: How likely is it that I have celiac disease?

      Celebrity Luncheon Loaf Gluten Free

      By robingfellow · Posted

      The Celebrity brand Luncheon Loaf (found at dollar tree, distributed by Atalanta Corporation) is gluten free according to the distributor. I emailed their customer service line for information on the ingredients, and they contacted the vendor and followed up with me that the "starch" ingredient I was worried about is corn and potato. It should be safe.
