Hiccups hex almost every-
body at some time or other.
Drinking or eating too much
or too fast can trigger them. So
can excessive smoking. Or just
laughing or swallowing air. Hic-
cups are actually spasms in the
diaphragm, the center of
breathing, that cause the windpipe
to shut tight. A few hiccups are
funny. Alot can be scary.
There are all kinds of folk
remedies to deal with hiccups.'
Holding one's breath to the count
of ten. Drinking a glass of water
rapidly. Exhaling and inhaling
fast into a , paper bag. But no
scientific tests have ever
confirmed the value of these
'techniques.
A medical researcher in, San
Francisco, however, has tested
another folk remedy--swallowing
i teaspoon of sugar—and found
it highly effective in stopping hic-
cups immediately. In controlled
studies, Dr. Edgar G. Engleman
at the University of California
School of Medicine found that'
most persons in good health, who
had not been hiccuping more than
several hours, got prompt rel-
ief from one spoonful of sugar--
taken straight.
Dr. Engleman also studied
patients who had suffered from
persistent hiccups for periods
ranging from 18 hours to six
weeks. A .sizable number of these
persons responded only to re-
peated treatments'
'
about a third
did not respond at all. Of this
group, most were suffering from
conditions that can stimulate hic-
cups, such as pneumonia, di-
abetes, and stroke.
If hiccups persist for 'more
than six hours at a stretch or
keep cropping up, this can be
a sign of trouble and should be
checked out with a doctor.
To find out more about other
problems related to breathing
that persist and cause trouble,
contact your local tuberculosis
and respiratory disease associa-
tion. They have , the facts.
