#hiccups

Supra-supramaximal inspiration! An exercise that is 100% effective in treating hiccups for everyone who is able to do it (according to the one study we have):

First, exhale completely, then inhale a deep breath. Wait 10 seconds, then—without exhaling—inhale a little more. Wait another five seconds, then top up the breath again. Finally, exhale. Generally, you will find that your singultus is gone.

Works for me and my partner. Imagine if science had funding.

Hey friend!!! Are you plagued by the hiccups? Haven't found a method to get rid of them? Try this simple trick and see if it works for you! 1) Push out ALL your air in your lungs, as much as you can. 2) Take a deep breath, and fill up your lungs completely. 3) Hold your breath and wait about 10 seconds. 4) If you hiccup while holding your breath, it may take another try or two. Start at Step 1. It should work very quickly! I hope this helps! If you have another tried and true hiccup-defeating method, I'd love to hear it!!! 🩵🩵🩵 #Hiccups #Help #Solution
