Look, I’m not a doctor—I’m just a person who has spent too much time hugging porcelain bowls. Seltzer isn’t a cure-all, but it’s a pretty safe first step. It’s cheap, available, and way less dramatic than Imodium.
If you’re puking your guts out, you need actual medical advice. But for that “ugh, I ate too much cheese” feeling? Grab a can. You look ridiculous taking tiny burps, but your stomach might thank you.
So next time you’re green around the gills, give seltzer a shot. Worst case, you’re still nauseous but slightly more hydrated. Best case? You’re a bubbly burp machine who just conquered the queasies. Cheers to that.
