How To
How to avoid seasickness while on cruise
A hat can help prevent seasickness when you cruise. A wide-brimmed head hat can prevent motion sickness. It keeps the head still and helps keep it from moving.
Also, a hat helps keep water off your face, which reduces the humidity. This makes it easier to breathe for those who experience dizziness when inhaled moist air.
Another tip is to drink plenty of fluids. Avoid alcohol or caffeine. These drinks dehydrate the liver, causing fluid to pool in the stomach. A sufficient amount of liquids will reduce salt levels. The body retains water due to salt, which can lead to nausea.
If you do feel nauseous, try eating something salty. Salty foods can cause your stomach to produce more hydrochloric acids, which aids in breaking down food particles.
These tips may not work. There are other medications that can be used to treat seasickness. You should be aware that side effects can include dry mouth and constipation as well as headaches.
