Nauseous mothers-to-be have another option to ward off morning sickness. Preggie Pops claim to fight that queasy feeling with a fairly typical (and highly accessible) blend of ingredients. The candy’s manufacturer, Three Lollies, says its combination of sugars and aromatherapeutic herbs (lavender, mint, ginger) can help pregnant women with nausea and even labor pains. The National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy has more on pregnancy and nausea.

Dr. Andrea Fernandez, from the department of obstetrics and gynecology at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, examined the drug-free pops and found them to contain nothing that any hard candy – specifically of the cinnamon or peppermint variety – doesn't already offer.

The lolly-adverse, may want to try Preggie Pop Drops.
