How to get rid of hiccups quickly: three life hacks
SSPDaily has prepared practical and effective life hacks to help stop hiccups. Find out how you can get rid of hiccups by holding your breath, using a teaspoon of chaff, and an unusual way of drinking water.
Holding your breath
One of the most effective ways to get rid of hiccups is to hold your breath. You need to take a deep breath and hold it for as long as possible. This can help regulate the diaphragm and possibly stop the hiccups.
Drinking water in an unusual way
To eliminate hiccups, you can try drinking water from the opposite side of the glass. Take the water and bend over at the waist. Then lift the glass under your chin and drink the water from the far side of the glass. This helps stimulate the vagus nerve, which can stop hiccups.
A teaspoon of sugar
Another effective way to get rid of hiccups is to put a teaspoon of sugar on your tongue and let it dissolve. It is believed that the sweetness stimulates the vagus nerve, providing quick relief from persistent hiccups.
