Seasickness

It was advocated that whoever was embarking on a voyage should eat well before setting out on the journey. At least this avoided the singular unpleasantness of retching on an empty stomach.

If sickness occurred despite sailing on a full stomach and the sickness was prolonged, it was suggested that the person suffering from seasickness should swallow the raw white of an egg beaten in cold water. If this stayed down it was to be followed by a whole raw egg mixed with a little brandy.

What Is A Home Remedy?

A home remedy is a treatment to cure an ailment that uses herbs, plants and other household items.

Home remedies may or may not have medicinal properties that cure ailments because they are typically passed along by ordinary people. Many are followed out of tradition or habit.

A significant number of home remedies, however, have been demonstrated to effectively treat ailments. One popular example of an effective home remedy is using chicken soup to treat colds or mild flu.

Other medically successful home remedies are willow bark tea for headaches and fevers, duct tape to help set broken bones and superglue to treat plantar warts.
