One of the symptoms of my condition, along with being actually sick, is just constant nausea
which I personally think is so much worse.
At least when I’m sick it just comes out of me and it’s done.
Good,we can move on
Nausea is just there all the time
I vomit on average once a day and I’ll be nauseous for three or four hours but sometimes 24.
So if you’ve come to this video looking for some tips from an expert-
you’ve found one!
My day starts with breakfast and then this…
Then this
Then 11am, the magic nausea time
Hi lovelies, Today we’re going to- whoa!
Yeah. Exactly.
Now, not all of these tips are ‘healthy’
but when you’re being murdered by nausea who gives a flying you-know-what?
I’ve tried every anti-nausea drug going and nothing has ever worked.
Nothing works as well as these tips that I'm about to give you
You can also read everything on my latest blog post which isin the link in the description

In case you are someone who likes to read
I’m starting you off easy with one most people know about: ginger.
It's warm, it's so good, and it actually works
Don’t bother with the pre-packaged tea,
it doesn’t have enough of the good stuff in.
The best way I’ve found is to chop up some ginger and pour boiling water over it. Add a sweetener tab and we’re good to go.
It’s not really known why ginger works on nausea, it just does.
This is a very low-level cure however.
Ginger tea will only work on the first state of nausea, a level 1 out of 3
If you’re already on the floor and unable to move your head it won’t touch it.
It is however very fragrant. And apparently excellent with pregnancy and morning sickness.
so pregnant mothers this is for you
It's on a path with our next cure
This is the go-to for when you’re out and about, it’s the easiest cure to get hold of.
It will help level 1 nausea but is really effective for motion sickness
or if there are any smells around that might make the nausea so much worse
Don’t bother with gum, chewing is just going to work up your stomach juices and that helps nobody.
Suck a mint instead. It will also help if you really need to eat but have been feeling too nauseous to do so.
Peppermint tea also works but I’ve found only fresh leaves work that you put into the water
That's the only stuff that works
It's something to do with peppermint oil
It’s also great for freshening your breath when just the idea of a toothbrush is just the worst thing
In the same vein as a mint, the heartburn and indigestion relief Gaviscon works tremendously well but, I find, only on mass!
One of those little things is not going to help you
You have to pile it up and shove it in there
They taste very chalky, which might activate your gag reflex, so I’ve found the best way to have them is with sugar free werthers originals!
Four gaviscon, two werthers, chew them up together until there’s nothing left in your mouth.
Boom. Five minutes later I can actually function.
I have no idea why the werthers activate the gaviscon and make them more powerful.
It just does
It's good
Go with it
Yeah but if you are a scientist do let me know your theories in the comments down bellow
I’ve spoken about this before but it works so well I can’t not not mention it
When I first became ill my doctor and I tried every antiemetic pill going-
the massive ones you crumble into drinks, the tiny one you put under your tongue.
dissolves, supposedly....
The one that makes your lips numb. The one that makes them blue
That might just be me
I have so many issues with the Coca Cola company but golly this thing works!
Apparently, the high levels of artificial sweetener in the diet and zero versions
would make the drink register as sickly sweet but to counteract this they include an antiemetic….
Which really, really works
It is one of the best I have ever encountered
It’s great to have a few sips after a meal, If you feel like it's not gonna stay down
Try some diet coke it will definitely help you
it’s great to have a little glass in the morning to keep the nausea at bay
I will vomit if I don't drink diet coke in the morning
Excellent
You should definitely drink through a straw, I would be a very bad dentist wife unless I told you about that
Straws are good for you people
Another drink but possibly not something you were expecting.
This is the bomb when you feel like hurling is imminent.
It’s a very old cure for all sorts of things and I understand why, it really does work.
But it might make your pee smell funny...
It will.
1 cup of liquid to 1 tablespoon of vinegar.
If your stomach can’t handle the fizz of lemonade then put it in sweetened water- I particularly like it with Ribena.
Although this is excellent for starting digestion
if you feel the problem is too much acidity it’s obviously not going to help.
Also try to avoid having too much as the side effect of that is certainly… nausea.
Do not kiss my wife after drinking it. She hates it!
Yes she does
Don't try to kiss my wife anyway.
Don't forget to use a straw
This one I’m actually a bit embarassed to share. It’s my dirty secret.
This is the top of the range, all time best, class A of anti-nausea cures you have ever come across
It will work for you
Try not to freak out about it though...
Take a cup of sweetener, add a spoonful of protein powder (preferably vanilla flavoured), mix, eat. Yep.
Just like that
Just as it is
It makes me feel so guilty and wrong but it just works. It really really works.
I am not kidding this is the one
This is the thing, this is what will do it for you
The protein powder will swell up in your stomach and counteracts the acid. It's gonna be good
If you’re feeling sick in a very watery way then this is for you.
Also if you are sick it will make it taste better
Overshare...
