Article by Emma Michelsen.   Pregnancy is a journey filled with anticipation, excitement, and change, both physical and emotional. However, for those navigating morning sickness or the more severe form, Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG), the experience can feel overwhelming, isolating, and far from the usual glowing image of pregnancy. If you are one of the many women struggling with nausea, vomiting, or dehydration, we see you. Daisy was created to provide effective, science-backed support for women navigating this difficult path. The Benefits of Morning Relief Daisy’s Morning Relief was born out of a need for a safe and effective product. It took two years of dedicated research and development in collaboration with PhD Nutritionists at Massey University.  Morning Relief harnesses clinically proven gingerol, the active component of ginger, which has been shown to alleviate nausea associated with morning sickness. Gingerol works by calming the stomach and reducing the frequency and severity of nausea. Using gingerol at a high ratio, such as that found in Morning Relief, gives you the benefits without a potent ginger taste. In addition to gingerol, Morning Relief also includes pregnancy-specific electrolytes to address maternal depletion. Proper hydration is vital for everyone, but it becomes even more crucial during pregnancy. Dehydration can worsen nausea and fatigue. Drinking small, frequent sips of fluids, especially those containing electrolytes, can significantly affect how you feel.  See Product See Product See Product Additional support for pregnant women For women experiencing additional side effects, such as constipation, which often results from anti-nausea medication and dehydration, there are other products that can provide relief:  Kiwi Crush : Known for its natural enzyme content and fibre, Kiwi Crush can help to manage and relieve constipation, which is unfortunately common in pregnancy and can be exacerbated by certain anti-nausea medications.  Two Islands Electrolytes : A clean and effective hydration solution that replenishes essential electrolytes.

The Benefits of Morning Relief

Daisy’s Morning Relief was born out of a need for a safe and effective product. It took two years of dedicated research and development in collaboration with PhD Nutritionists at Massey University. 

Morning Relief harnesses clinically proven gingerol, the active component of ginger, which has been shown to alleviate nausea associated with morning sickness. Gingerol works by calming the stomach and reducing the frequency and severity of nausea. Using gingerol at a high ratio, such as that found in Morning Relief, gives you the benefits without a potent ginger taste.
