Hiccups are annoying and when they don’t stop they will become more awful, so what can we do about them?

It's a general belief in most countries that when you get hiccups it means someone, somewhere is remembering you, but it’s not true, as hiccups may be normal and short or may be caused by some serious medical condition.

Here are some reasons for hiccups:

1) Hiccups can be a result of spasm in the diaphragm muscle.

2) Hiccups can be caused by eating very spicy food and drinking chilled carbonated drinks.

3) Eating food very fast without chewing it properly can also be a reason for hiccups.

4) Long lasting Hiccups can be due to diseases like diabetes, asthma, kidney failure, thyroid problems  or any weakening of organs or problem in the central nervous system etc. (Note : if you have long lasting Hiccups you need emergency medical attention)

Now here are some ways to get rid of hiccups as soon as possible:

1)   Take one spoon of sugar and put it in your mouth and enjoy the sweetness of it.

2)   Take one teaspoon of fennel seeds and some mint leaves and boil it in one cup of water, after pouring it into a cup for drinking, add one tea spoon of honey and drink it.

3    Take a little pink salt or rock salt and put it in warm water and drink it. Sip by sip, your hiccups will stop.

4)   Take 2 or 3 black peppers with a little jaggery or honey.

5)   Take one spoon of Bournvita chocolate powder and you drink warm water slowly, it will stop your hiccups.
