How To

How to avoid getting seasick on a cruise

Wearing a hat on a cruise will help you avoid getting seasick. A wide-brimmed head hat can prevent motion sickness. It keeps the head still and helps keep it from moving.

A hat can also keep water off the head, decreasing the amount of moisture in the air. This makes breathing easier for people prone to feeling dizzy when they breathe in moist air.

Another tip: Drink lots of fluids. Avoid alcohol or caffeine. These drinks dehydrate the liver, causing fluid to pool in the stomach. The amount of salt in the bloodstream can be reduced by drinking enough liquids. Salt causes the body to retain water which leads to nausea.

You may feel nauseated if you eat something salty. Salty foods can cause your stomach to produce more hydrochloric acids, which aids in breaking down food particles.

If none of these tips work, there are medications you can take to relieve 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.
