4. Slice a Lemon
Slicing lemons is another way to deal with nausea. The citrus scent of freshly sliced lemons can reduce nausea, specifically for pregnant women. One study took a hundred pregnant women and had them inhale lemon essential oils as soon as their nausea started to manifest.
After four days of studying the participants, researches were pleased to see that the participants saw a 9% lower rate of nausea to the placebo group. Scratching or slicing a lemon works because it is an effective way of releasing the essential oils contained within. You could even take the essential oils of the lemon and place it into a vial to provide portability.
There have been various studies showing that the smell of citrus can be effective in reducing nausea, especially nausea that is caused by pregnancy. Using a coffee grinder to grind up some lemon peels could also help relieve nausea as the scent of the citrus will be released into the air.
