How to use lemon as a powerful ally against motion sickness
Not everyone knows that lemon is a good aid during car rides: just drink the juice or suck on a slice to get huge benefits. Motion sickness affects many people, including children, especially during long and winding journeys. The body may not like these conditions and react by showing extremely annoying nausea. To avoid taking specific drugs or products, you can resort to this citrus fruit, which has no contraindications. In fact, it is a natural antacid and its ability to block the production of hydrochloric acid allows it to regulate the stomach.
Eating a slice or boiling a peel in water to drink is helpful for countering the symptoms of motion sickness. However, if you suffer from gastroesophageal reflux or nausea due to gastritis, it is better to opt for other solutions so as not to make things worse.
Have you ever suffered from car sickness? Did you know about this beneficial use of lemon for “motion” nausea?
