Looking for ways to survive a road trip with the family? Be sure to pack lemons, a time-honoured way to reduce car sickness.
In motion sickness, your mouth produces excess saliva, which upsets your stomach and triggers nausea.
The sour taste of sucking on a lemon makes your mouth pucker, reducing the production of saliva, which in turn prevents nausea.
Lemon water made ahead of time may work, too, and research has shown even sniffing the refreshing scent of lemon can help.
