Hiccups strike without warning and can feel endless—especially for babies. Here's a simple, time-tested trick to stop them fast: fresh lemon juice.
1. When hiccups hit, slice a small piece of lemon.
2. Squeeze a few drops of juice onto your tongue.
The lemon's acidity irritates the tongue nerves, shocking the hiccup reflex to stop immediately.
Despite the sour face, it works wonders for babies too!
