Something that works!!

[holly18]

hey guys i thought i would share a little tip for releaving n*! i discovered it a while ago and had worked everytime! barley sugar boiled sweets are great. i told my mum that i thought they releived n* and she said that when she was little, her sister had the worse motion sickness. she couldnt go in a car for 10 mins without being sick, so she used to have barley sugar sweets and they stopped it! I was talking to a girl at work last week who is pregnant and she said she has had very bad n* and morning sickness and i suggested she tried them too. At work this sunday i saw her again and she said they did offer her some relef


so there you go everyone, i hope it works for someone else. it might just be a placeabo effect but i dont care, it works for me! (and they taste great too)

Barely sugar sweets, I have never heard of them. What exactly are they?

That's what I'm talking about, what are barley sugar sweets?

[faith-marilyn]

they're hard boiled sweets that taste like barley sugar! they're really nice! lemon barly juice should help too if the sweets do xxx

Barley sugar - very well known in the UK - it must be a British thing! They used to hand them out on flights to help your ears pop - the extra swallowing helps. I didn't realised they helped motion sickness too.


I have often found that something sugary eg. lemonade, ginger ale, coke, etc seems to help N*. It has to be flat and non-fizzy for me. I don't know why sugar helps but it does. The anti-n* syrups I've seen in the US are mostly sugar, aren't they?


Anyone know why sugar helps?

I've never heard of them or seen them, so is it possible they don't sell that everywhere???

wow, they are wondeful, my favorite, and I thought they were justa nova scotia thing! they sell them here around xmas.


I'm wondering that maybe it's the fact that it has sugar, which may help boost a low sugar level, which can cause nausea, and fixes it.


whatever it does, I never thought it had anti nausea benifits. the only possible reason I can think of is the sugar level thing.


they are delicious though! ( the red are my fav)
