Looking for a cure for seasickness?
Nausea, vomiting, sweating, dizziness...
It's true that this type of motion sickness can quickly ruin a cruise vacation.
Do not panic ! No need to take drugs that will knock you out and put you to sleep.
Fortunately, a skipper buddy shared his simple and effective remedy with me to quickly relieve the symptoms of seasickness.
The trick is to suck cherry pits . Look, it's quite simple:
1. Take two or three cherry pits.
2. Put them in your mouth.
3. Suck them like candy.
There you go, no more nausea when you're on a boat :-)
Thanks to this natural remedy, you avoid the inconvenience caused by seasickness!
Simple, fast and efficient, right?
In addition, it is much more economical than buying seasickness patches or bracelets.
Not only do we enjoy eating a few cherries, but we also avoid getting sick on the boat.
Of course, be careful not to swallow the cherry pits!
Sucking the cherry pits generates more salivation in the mouth.
As a result, this temporary hypersalivation helps relieve nausea associated with seasickness.
Seasickness is linked to a balance problem. When you're on a boat, the information received by your inner ear is disturbed.
Seasickness usually occurs at the beginning of the trip and lasts a few days while you adjust.
The good news is that you can avoid or limit this adaptation step.
To avoid seasickness, prepare the day before getting on the boat:
- Rest well the day before and the day of departure. Because fatigue is a factor that aggravates seasickness.
- Eat sensibly.
- Avoid stressing. To relax, you can try one of these tricks.
And on the boat:
- Hunger promotes seasickness. So eat a little:avoid being hungry and not having an empty stomach. Otherwise the nausea is stronger.
- The cold also promotes seasickness. So wrap up well!
- Remember to stay well hydrated on the boat. Drinking water helps fight seasickness.
- Do not drink alcohol.
- Do not read.
- Do not look out the window.
- Do not smoke.
- Limit your movements and especially avoid moving your head.
- Avoid focusing on the movements of the boat or the sea.
