Simple Steps for Motion Sickness Relief

Motion sickness can bring about a series of unpleasant symptoms including cold sweats, dizziness and vomiting. While riding in a car or sailing on a boat may not seem like a big deal for some people, for others the mere idea of riding in the back seat is nauseating. If you’re suffering from motion sickness, you can take certain supplements and medications to help. But if you want to nip the problem in the bud, here are some easy steps you can take for motion sickness relief:

~Focus on a distant, stationary object and refrain from tasks like reading or playing handheld videogames.

~Don’t overeat before riding in any type of vehicle; avoid spicy and greasy foods in particular.

~If your stomach becomes unsettled, eat some plain dry crackers to calm it down.
