Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I need to know what the word "quease" means. What is the most appropriate word to define it?

Answer: Vomit

The word "quease" is American slang for vomit. So, if you're feeling "queasy", it means you're feeling nauseated, or you want to throw up. Vomiting is rather common among the population of the World. It can be caused by reasons such as drinking alcohol, headaches, gastroenteritis/stomach diseases and suffering from motion sickness, to mention a few.

It can be cured with medicine, relaxation exercises, or herbs, just to name a few.
2. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I should drink a bark tea to relieve my symptoms. What is the name of the fruit tree, with the scientific name of Pyrus malus that is common to use to relieve symptoms of nausea?

Answer: Apple

An apple bark tea can also relieve stomach aches, heartburn, fever and constipation. It is a fairly old method to cure all of these discomforts. You're aiming to quease? Get some apple bark, place it on a pot and heat water in it, let it boil and rest for 20 minutes. There you go, an easy and effective medicinal tea.
3. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I could consider drinking a tea from the leaves of Monarda ciriodora, a species of plant. Which type of fruit does it resemble?

Answer: Orange

Besides orange, it is also similar to lemon and mint, the leaves will smell lemon-like if crushed. The common name for this tea is Bergamot tea, thing that is not surprising taking into account that a Bergamot orange looks like a lemon and has uses such as aromatherapy and treating diseases like malaria. It is also used in Earl Grey tea.
4. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I can drink a black horehound infusion. What is the scientific name for this herb?

Answer: Ballota nigra

An infusion is not the same as a tea. An infusion is a drink made with dry leaves or parts of a plant and boiling water, while tea is an infusion of leaves and herbs mixed with hot water. Black horehound can act as both a sedative and as an antiemetic plant. It is one of the most effective to fight nausea, motion sickness or other quease-related symptoms.
5. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I can try drinking a codonopsis decoction. Which of the following words best describe a decoction?

Answer: Extraction

A decoction is one of many methods of extraction, and the result of the process is also called a decoction. The roots of codonopsis pilosula are commonly used in Chinese traditional medicine. It is also a cheaper and more economic replacement for ginseng, a plant used in the making of energy drinks and that also has medicinal uses, which explains why it is also nicknamed "the poor man's ginseng".
6. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I may try drinking an alpinia officinarum infusion. What is the common name for this plant?

Answer: Galangal

Galangal was used in ancient Europe as a spice. Today, it is not usually used in Europe but in Asia, as it is cultivated in the southeast of this continent. It is a very aromatic herb, and it has been used in Asia for things such as making drinks and curries. People in India use it to make perfumes. Alpinia officinarum has a powerful concentration of galangin, which helps slow the growth and development of breast tumor cells.
7. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I can drink a Zingiber officinale infusion. It is often referred to as a spice, but it is actually a herb. What is the common name for Zingiber officinale?

Answer: Ginger

Although originally cultivated only in China, today Ginger is used worldwide. It has been recommended for more than two thousand years by Chinese medicine, to cure several health issues. Ginger, in addition to helping relieve nausea, can also have medicinal properties such as being antifungal, an anticlotting agent, antiseptic and antibacterial. Ginger is one of the most important herbs today.
8. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I could try drinking a lemongrass tea. In which country of the world is lemongrass known as "tanglad"?

Answer: Philippines

Lemongrass has the scientific name of cymbopogon citratus. It can also be used in the form of oil to relieve symptoms of nausea. Besides, it can also act as an anticonvulsive. In the Philippines, the plant is abundant and is used for cooking.
9. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I can have a turmeric infusion. To which family does it belong?

Answer: Zingiberaceae

Turmeric is part of the ginger family, the alternative name for the Zingiberaceae family. Major producers of turmeric include India and Pakistan, and it has been used in the first country as a dye and then taken advantage of as medicinal and culinary, as turmeric powder is widely used in South Asian cuisine.
10. I'm aiming to quease, but before I do, I can try with an alternative method to tea or infusions. Which of the following options, which has the scientific name of Myristica fragrans, can be consumed in the form of capsules?

Answer: Nutmeg

Moderate use of nutmeg capsules can relieve nausea symptoms, and can also act as antimicrobials, although there have been several cases of nutmeg poisoning, so I would recommend to treat your symptoms with another option!
