How To
How to avoid becoming seasick during a cruise
You can avoid seasickness by wearing a cap while on cruise. A wide-brimmed cap helps to prevent motion sickness by keeping your head from moving too much.
The hat keeps water from the face and reduces the moisture in the air. People who feel dizzy from breathing in moist air can breathe easier.
Another tip: Drink lots of fluids. Avoid alcohol or caffeine. These drinks dehydrate your body, making it more difficult for fluids to move around in your stomach. Salt levels can be decreased by drinking enough liquids. Salt causes the body to retain water which leads to nausea.
Try eating salty foods if you feel nauseated. Salty foods increase the production of hydrochloric, which helps to break down food.
You can also take medications to alleviate seasickness if none of these methods work. 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.
