How To
How to avoid becoming seasick during a cruise
A hat can help prevent seasickness when you cruise. A wide-brimmed cap helps to prevent motion sickness by keeping your head from moving too much.
A hat can also keep water off the head, decreasing the amount of moisture in the air. This allows people who are prone to dizziness from inhaling moist air to breathe more easily.
Another tip is to drink lots of fluids. Avoid alcohol or caffeine. These drinks dehydrate the body and make it harder for fluids to move around the stomach. Salt levels can be decreased by drinking enough liquids. Salt causes the body's retention of water, which can lead to nausea.
If you do feel nauseous, try eating something salty. Salty foods stimulate the stomach to produce higher levels of hydrochloric acid. This helps to break down food particles.
These tips may not work. There are other medications that can be used to treat seasickness. Some medications can cause side effects like dry mouth, dryness, constipation, blurred sight, headaches, dry lips, dry skin, dry gums, dry lips, constipation, dry eyes, dry throat, dry skin, and constipation.
