An enduring Sunshine Coast business has been recognised for creating a natural product that helps address pregnancy nausea and travel sickness.

Buderim Ginger’s BioActive Ginger Plus (BG+) shots were acknowledged as the Best Functional Food or Beverage Product at the esteemed Naturally Good Awards, held in Sydney earlier this month.

The recognition comes as a result of the product’s ability to help relieve a range of ailments including nausea caused by travel sickness, pregnancy or medical treatments.

Buderim Ginger sales and product coordinator Millie Mae was excited at the national award win, with the BG+ shots competing against a range of national and international health-related products.

She attributed the achievement to Buderim Ginger’s 80 years of experience with ginger and the in-house research and development team that formulated the product.

The BG+ shots competed against a diverse range of national and international health-related products.

The BG+ range takes locally grown ginger and combines it with essential nutrients, including post-type probiotics, plant-derived vitamins and minerals.

“We know that many clinicians advise their patients to use ginger to prevent and soothe nausea,” she said.

“We are so grateful to be able to offer a dedicated range of ginger products to really help people to get effective relief, with BioActive capsules, smoothie powder, gummie bears or daily shots,” she said.

“Although our BG+ range was only recently introduced to the market, we have received outstanding feedback from customers, and the number of suppliers stocking this range continues to grow.”

The BG+ range was only recently introduced to the market.

Registered nurse and midwife Amy Paulinich, from Natural Birth Co, believed the Buderim BioActive Ginger Plus range was an ideal natural supplement for women during pregnancy.

“Ginger has been proven to be a natural method to effectively reduce pregnancy induced nausea and vomiting,” she said.

“Buderim BioActive Ginger Plus offers a wonderful range of products for pregnant women to receive their daily dose of ginger in all forms and I’d certainly be recommending it for my clients.”
