Natural Ways To Prevent Motion Sickness During Holiday Travel
Holidays can be fun, but experiencing nausea or fatigue during the trip? Not so much.
Air travel and car travel can be a nightmare for those of us who suffer from motion sickness. There are a few options that guarantee to reduce your motion sickness all at once, but many of these are harmful medications with side effects and long-term consequences.
Isn’t there a single solution that can take away the nauseous feeling without giving you a nastier side effect in exchange?
Thankfully there are a few natural solutions for that along with our special soft chews! Let’s find out what they are and also learn about the revolutionizing Anti-Na chews:
Natural Solutions for Motion Sickness
1. Ginger
Ginger might not be your favorite herb, but chewing on a small piece of ginger has been known to prevent and relieve nausea and vomiting.
Ginger is also safe to consume and a natural remedy. You can either opt to chew ginger pieces directly or suck on ginger-flavored lozenges before the journey.
Ginger is also known to be safe and effective in treating nausea in pregnant women.
However, those with a heart condition might need to consult with their physician on how much ginger they can safely consume.
2. Peppermint
Peppermint is another safe way to tackle travel blues.
Peppermint contains essential oils like menthol, menthone, and limonene. These are released when the peppermint leaves are steeped in hot water. Peppermint works by calming and relaxing the stomach muscles. It helps with indigestion, IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), gas, bloating, and nausea.
You can consume peppermint by preparing a tea or taking it in capsule form. The best thing is unlike some varieties of tea, peppermint is free of caffeine.
Want some more benefits? Peppermint has been known to reduce the intensity of menstrual cramps by preventing muscle contractions - making it a great choice to keep in your luggage.
Note: Those with GERD or Gastroesophageal reflux disease should skip this solution and move to the next.
3. Protein Drinks
Protein as a solution for the prevention of motion sickness is a relatively new development, and sounds odd at first - but hear us out.
Protein can help suppress gastric tachyarrhythmia and prevent the entire spectrum of motion sickness symptoms from occurring. Here’s a detailed study on how liquid protein-predominant meals can help with motion sickness.
Try to eat a salad topped with some grilled chicken or grilled fish before the trip. Other options are hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, or nuts.
Traveling on an empty stomach is the biggest no-no, Especially for those with motion sickness. An empty stomach is an unsettled stomach that only worsens when travel begins.
While protein is best among food groups to help with nausea, it may not always be accessible to you. In such an instance, try having fresh fruit as a snack or eat a meal of simple carbohydrates.
4. Chamomile Tea
You might have tried chamomile tea as a remedy for insomnia, but did you know it is also great for motion sickness?
That’s right. Chamomile tea is known to ease anxiety, reduce stress, and also help alleviate depression.
Chamomile tea contains a chemical compound called Chamazulene. This compound is known for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antispasmodic properties. Together these properties can reduce muscle spasms, inflammation, and help with any pain or discomfort from travel.
You can buy the store-variety tea bags or make a fresh batch right at home. Simply add dried Chamomile flowers to hot water and let it steep for 5 to 10 minutes.
5. Lemon
The key ingredient in lemons, citric acid, is known to bring balance to the acid-base that is in the body.
You can try adding it to your diet before going on a trip. Simply squeeze a fresh slice of lemon into a glass of water and drink it before the trip. You can also try to prepare a flask and sip the drink throughout the trip.
Note that warm water with lemon juice is a solution known to stimulate bowels. Excessive lemon juice consumed in a short time frame may also worsen your nausea. So, it is best to stay within limits and not overdo it.
6. Anti-Na
