Vomiting Remedies

General Feedback
Posted by Parker (Toronto, Ontario, Canada) on 07/21/2012

I'm confused. Everyone who swears by a vomiting cure (be it ginger, black tea, ACV, etc) have all been vomiting multiple times and for hours. Then they take "x" cure and say "Wow, it worked instantly! " But isn't it more likely that the virus or food poisoning ran its course after so long? Isn't that a more likely explanation than any of these remedies working so miraculously?

I'm not here to comment on anything though it does sound like a good Idea , but I've been vomiting non stop for 11 hours and anything I drink nor eat I vomit out is there any other way of stopping this??


Peppermint Water

Drinking cold peppermint water works instantly for me whenever I get motion sickness or nausea from eating bad food. Also, whenever I'm chained to the bathroom because of the flu, peppermint water helps to keep me from vomiting.

One or two drops of Peppermint extract in water. The ratio of peppermint to water really doesn't matter- I generally like my peppermint water strong (1 drop of peppermint in 3 table spoons of water), but everyone else in my family prefers diluted stuff (2 drops in 6 ounces). Nevertheless, it will still work.

Peppermint extract is available in the spice section of most of the grocery stores I go to.

My 2 year-old started vomiting an hour ago. It was on her birthday minutes before her birthday party, so I really wanted to help her feel better. I tried 2 teaspoons of raw honey. She ate it and said it was yummy, but it came up 5 minutes later, and she has vomitted 4 times since then in the last 30 minutes. Sadly, this remedy did not work for us! :(

Ec's Onion Juice Remedy

Have a 10 yr old son. Started vomiting at 4 in the am. Turned to dry heaves/bile and continued about every half-hour for the next 6 hours.

Tried the onion juice & peppermint tea. It did not work. He retched it back up within about 30 seconds. I would not recommend the onion.

Hi, my daughter was vomiting for almost an hour and I used the advice from here and gave her 1 tsp of raw honey and that stopped the vomiting instantly. I then gave her another tsp when she woke up for water and she has been right as rain since then. I took one as per another poster and I am going to take another one soon because I am beginning to feel the onset of a stomachache. I have used other advice on the site for a bad cold and I have to say it was well appreciated.

My six year old has been sick since yesterday, not being able to hold any liquids or food down. I saw the honey suggestion and remembered how my parents didn't have health care and used to do home remedies such as the use of honey, I tried it on the kid a walla! She finally resting. Thanks for the reminder.


Turmeric

i was just finishing a water fast done through 2 days straight, but the night before i was going to break the fast, i got so incredibly nauseous while sleeping. so nauseous in fact, that i actually dreamt i was in the first stages of pregnancy again, telling people "it's just morning sickness." when i woke up, i could barely move for fear of throwing up. i know that vomiting can be a part of fasting as the body is cleansed and detoxified, but this was ridiculous. i could barely move and even lying still i felt so sick.

finally i decided to google my symptoms and found that all of these people on this site really liked this turmeric cure. i thought how weird but i was ready to try anything. i'd already thrown up 4 times upon waking from 7 am - 10 am and i had my 3 small children to take care of, so i was desperate to feel well. i did 1 tsp in about 6 oz of warm water and just the smell threw me off, but i persisted and after only a couple of sips, my tummy felt settled down. i thought "weird that it would work so fast, but let's see..." so i drank the whole cup and about 15 minutes afterward i felt well enough to get the kiddos breakfast!! i even had an appetite again so i ate some simple things and now two hours later, i feel absolutely amazing!! i plan on telling everyone i know about this remedy and i plan to continue it 2x/day for today and tomorrow just to be on the safe side :D

EC: Thanks, Kim. Where are you reading on EC that people are taking turmeric for nausea or vomiting? It's not listed as a cure on either of those 2 pages!

Red Cordial
Posted by Kendall (Brisbane, Australia) on 04/14/2009

I would like to let everyone in a a little secret that has helped me through many a night of vomiting children. Red Cordial, I dont know why it works but it does. Make according to instructions on bottle, normally 1 part cordial to 5 parts water, let child sip 10mls every 10 minutes. Vomiting should be a distant memory after 30mins or so.

EC: Red cordial is a sweet, raspberry flavoured drink made by adding cordial syrup to water.

Here's a recipe we just found: http://www.recipecottage.com/drinks/red-cordial.html

slippery elm for sickness (vomiting, diarrhea) and upset stomach, will literally stop sickness. one level teaspoon either with a tiny bit of toffee, maple syrup, honey... to be put straight in the mouth or mixed with warm water (very small amount)

Our 5 y.o. was vomiting; of course water made it worse! My husband gave her honey, recommended from your site and... Walla! No more throwing up and no more tummy ache. In fact, the whole family took a teaspoon of honey as a preventative feature. thanks for the tip and so excited than an "earth" site like this is out there. Cindy

Tried the honey, I think it's actually helping! I mixed about a tablespood with some decaf green tea about an hour ago, and my stomach has settled a little. I suggest it.


Black Tea

I have a question ok if you are to throw up then try this remedy how does it get rid of the virus???And will it come back in a couple days or not????


Black Tea
Posted by Leigha (Cornwall, Ontario) on 01/18/2013

When I found this I went to make some. Started to feel like I was going to throw up again by the time it was made, drank it so far it's worked and settled my stomach so far but its only been 10 minutes. Hopefully it keeps working. Can't stand this especially when I have to stay home from work cuz I also didn't sleep at all last night.


Water to Induce Vomiting

When your vomiting, a lot of people think that they should drink a lot of water to replenish the body....BIG mistake! All you will do is vomit more. Drinking Gatoraid or something like it will stay down.

When your child is sick though, and you KNOW they need to throw up, give them a cup of water. It does the trick for my kids who will do every thing in their power not to throw up! PS be smarter than me and have that bucket ready! lol~ donna

Cold, Wet Compress

A cold, wet compress layed across the throat will dramatically reduce or eliminate nausea. It might even keep you from vomiting if you're on the edge.

Cold, Wet Compress
Posted by Octobergirl (Statesville, Nc) on 01/31/2012

This works best when nausea is first starting up. I work in a hospital and have used it many times while waiting for an RN to get medication to the patient. A lot of the time the nausea has passed and they only take the medication to keep it from coming back. My mother-in-law had a lot of sickness and she always found at least partial relief using this method.


Cold, Wet Compress

This works, only we have always placed it on our foreheads. This has been used for generations in my family. A cold wet wash rag placed across the forehead. There's something about it cooling your body and settling the stomach. Done at the first sign of nausea it will often pass, or at least make it less frequent. Usually for us though it passes, except in the worst cases. I've used this with both of my kids dozens of times. It is my first line of defense when nausea strikes.

Go to the pharmacy and buy a bottle of coke syrup. It is an old fashioned recipe to cure nausea. 1 tbsp over some ice sipped slowly is usually all you need to say good riddance to nausea.
