Motion sickness can be uncomfortable for many people, but there are ways to prevent and alleviate its symptoms. One approach is to consume certain fruits that can help reduce heat, limit motion sickness, and prevent fatigue. Lemon, rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, can help cool the body and reduce fatigue while aiding digestion. Oranges and tangerines are also high in vitamin C, providing a refreshing boost and helping to alleviate nausea.
Herbalist Bui Dac Sang from the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology and the Hanoi Oriental Medicine Association recommends consuming biscuits, toast, or chewing gum to help alleviate feelings of nausea and discomfort. It is important for individuals with motion sickness to avoid overeating and opt for light, easily digestible foods. Sitting in the upper seat or near a window and looking out into the distance can also help reduce symptoms.
In addition to these natural remedies, it is important to consider other factors that may contribute to motion sickness such as closed spaces, cigarette smoke, gasoline odors, hot weather, long distance travel, young children, and pregnant women. To prevent motion sickness caused by excessive stimulation of the vestibule or conflicting signals sent to the brain, it is recommended to avoid reading or using electronic devices while in motion. Instead focus on breathing deeply and relaxing your body as you travel through various environments.
