    Cure for Hiccups?

    There was a young lady on the Today show today, who has had the hiccups for three straight weeks now.  We want to know what your cure for the hiccups is.  Post below and let us know.

    My family's cure is to drink pineapple juice.  It was worked every time I've tried it, so I swear by it.  You just get one of those little cans of pineapple juice, but I suppose the fresh fruit would work just as well.

    Have someone plug your ears and drink at least 8oz of water without stopping.  When they release your ears the hiccups are gone.

    Re: Cure for Hiccups?

    I was a bit skeptical at first that just simply drinking warm water alone can actually help to stop hiccups, too simple it may seem to be, but his reasoning made sense — hiccups are caused by the spasming of the diaphragm, a sheet of muscle located across the bottom the ribcage. And what do you do when a you get a muscle cramp? You apply heat. Does this warm water method really stop hiccups? You bet. It works like a charm every time. The hiccups will resolve in less than a minute (usually about 15 seconds). If it doesn’t, what you’re drinking isn’t warm enough, try something warmer.

    Just hold your breath for as long as possible.
