I don’t know, it seems like the world is conspiring against me, and just when I have a meeting, I get the hiccups. I don’t know if it’s nerves or what, but what I do know is that I should be prepared to get rid of it quickly and effectively; so here are some home remedies to say goodbye to hi…hi…hiccups.
- Squeeze the palm of your hand with the thumb of the other, the tighter the better. It may sound silly, but the discomfort is a distraction for the nervous system that can stop the hiccups.
- Suck on a lemon, the acidity may make you pucker your lips and make the hiccups disappear.
- Take a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar; I know… it's awful!, but it's super effective.
- Grab a teaspoon of sugar, wet it in warm water and place it on the back of your tongue, hold it for a few seconds and then swallow.
- Hold your breath until you can't anymore. Repeat this three times in a row.
- Get scared! A little jump from fright will make the hiccups go away.
- And we can't forget the classic: fill a glass of water and drink it upside down, leaning your body forward. Be careful! You might choke and get rid of the hiccups, but you could end up with a terrible cough.
