Actually, Margi, it really is the ginger, not the water, that is making the difference here. I'm not sure why it works, but it definitely works, up to a point. At least, it has always worked for me.I first read about it years ago in a headache book that was discussing migraine remedies. Since that time I have come across other references to it, and I have been using it for the first part of my cycles for about five years now, mostly as a way to stretch out the Imitrex reserves.Once the CH reaches a Kip 7 or above, the ginger is pretty useless, but it works wonders at Kip 4 or 5.pinky
