My child's doctor told me that the processed ginger ale contains chemicals and acids that negate any ginger benefits. (this was also mentioned above).

He said to also stay away from sprite and 7-up which have citrus acid. He said the best soft drink remedy is a good ol' fashioned Coke along with saltine crakers.

BTW, I asked the doctor about ginger ale because one of my son's friends was in the car with us with an upset stomach so I bought him a can of ginger ale. Five minutes later he blew chunks all over my backseat.
