I suffer with anxiety and a nervous stomach. I often feel like I have a knot in my somach and have been taking Prilosec for several years now off and on for severe gastric reflux due to my nervous stomach. I found a wonderful cure and haven't needed to take Prilosec for six months now. I was reading different health magazines and discovered that Ginger Root helps stomach problems and has a calming effect on your nerves. I bought some ginger root pills at the health food store and to my surprise, it worked. Now if I start feeling nervous or if I know I will be in a stressful situation, I take a couple of ginger root pills and presto, my stomach doesn't get upset. I hope this helps some of you out there.
