Name: g tosh
Country_of_Remedy: USA
Ingredients: 1 Lemon, cut in half with rind cut away from fruit,
1 Orange, cut in half with rind cut away from fruit,
Fresh Rosemary sprigs
Instructions: To alleviate nausea before or after vomiting, start with the Lemon zest and fruit,
place it in a cup or bowl or small zip lock plastic bag. Hold it under the nose and breathe slowly and regularly,
switch over to the orange after a few minutes, following the same slow, regular breathing, after a few minutes
switch over to the Rosemary sprigs. Roughing the leaves of the rosemary will release the oils and increase the intensity of the aroma.
Squeezing the lemon and orange zests cause release of the oils and also intensify the aromas of the fruit.
I have used this remedy many times with my son. The first time when he was only 2. It really works!
He is now 13 and asks for the remedy when he is not feeling well. If we use this remedy as soon as the nausea starts, we seldom get to the vomiting stage.
After you are finished with inhaling the aromas of the citrus and rosemary, keep them in the plastic for another time, or brew it in hot water on your stove
and release the scents into the air of your home.
If the person with the nausea prefers other citrus scents, or more \"fruity scents\" or finds the rosemary too pungent, experiment with other herbs such as mint,
spearmint, lemon balm, and even Cilantro. The citrus like scent of the cilantro works very well. It just depends on what the person prefers.
This is GREAT for morning sickness as well. I was skeptical at first, I\'m an RN with 20 years experience, but more and more I am absolutely
convinced that home remedies, aromatherapy, self healing, and meditation are key to keeping us healthy and out of the Doctors\' office!

Ingredients: White rice, water, salt, garlic
Instructions: Whenever you get ill from eating something bad making you vomit
your food, here's good way to "settle" down your stomach. The cure
is to eat bland, sugar-free, simple foods. What I use is white rice. Boil the
rice but use plenty of water (just like making soup). Don't cook it like you
normally would expect to eat regular rice. Just make sure it's really watered
down. Add salt and lightly crushed garlic as it's cooked. The warm, soothing
and natural curing elements in the garlic and salt will make you feel much better.
The fluids will also replenish your dehydration (if any). Good luck and God
Bless.

Once when my kid sister got very sick and the vomited nonstop for a long time, then some liquid started to come out when nothing else would come up. My parents called a specialty doctor and he said that you should drink flat soda, so what my parents did was mixed the soda in a glass with a spoon till it all got flat.Then my sister drank it. And like the doctor said she stopped throwing up. I don’t know why the flat soda stopped the vomiting but it did but it did.
