FAQs

How Long Should I Take the Chews?


For pregnant women, the suggested use is 3 per day for 3 days,  continuing as necessary


Why can I only have 3 per day?


For pregnant women, 3 per day is the optimal amount for effectiveness*


Can I take this if I am not pregnant?


While the Chews were formulated with pregnant women in mind, anyone can benefit from ginger’s effect on nausea*


Are the Chews Organic?


While the primary ingredients like Ginger and Honey are organic, the chew itself is not 95% organic but is Non GMO (awaiting NGP certification)


Why are you using pouches instead of jars?


The Soft Chews are a confectionary, and require additional stability to ensure a prolonged shelf-life and high quality chew. Additionally, glass is a safety hazard with confectionary-based supplements.


Are the soft chew pouches recyclable? 


No. The pouches that contain the soft chews are not recyclable, as they are specially crafted with several layers to prolong shelf-life and ensure a high-quality chew. While there are recyclable pouches available, they dramatically reduce the shelf-life of the product.  


Do the soft chews melt easily? 


While any confectionary is more likely to melt, the soft-chews are more stable than a gummy, and will not melt unless exposed to temperatures above 140 degrees F. With that being said, we caution against keeping in high temperatures for prolonged periods of time.
