Try roasted peanuts!!! :evil: :evil: :lol:

anyway, anything that can calm the stomach is believed to help. Eg Ginger tea, ginger powder etc. Ginger cookies can help too (provided it is allowed in your diet plan! :lol: )

Peppermint oil without sugar is another sure remedy, failing which you can look for peppermint candies.

I am told sucking on a piece of lemon is good for any kind of motion sickness..I find it calming when on the road for long durations. Besides, there are a number of homeopathic remedies, but those you should take only after consultation.

I have never had air sicknesss. Perhaps it has to do with eating peanut chutney? :lol: :twisted:

Dev,

My daughter too has this problem. It might also be due to change in pressure. Always keep yr ears closed with cotton to overcome this and never look out of the window while taking off/ landing. ANyway, airline food is not always tasty and hope you'll eat less when aboard. India vareengala?? CPA eppadi pochu??

Badri,

yeah, meeting over but no delegation this time, pudhu project-pa, neraiya velai irukku.

Ennathu, thodapakuchiya? :shock: That is simply a partition cloth thru' which they both stare at Dragons before Harry's first task in Goblet of fire.

Hey Badri,

Thanks for the suggestions... Will take a big pack of roasted peanut along... :lol:

SEA-SICKNESS & AIR-SICKNESS ... Nausea

"dev"

// Hey guys,... I'm looking out for some tips to alleviate air sickness (nausea)... anyone with some tried & tested tips,pls post it... FYI,even avomin fails to work on me sometimes... I really pity my fellow travellers... Wish i don't make the whole flight sick this time...//

Some people have such an Alergy....for which there are...

(1).. several medicines.. to be administered ... prior to commencing the journeyl .. Family doctors know .them

(2) Some people do not find it sufficient... in which case.. there are several CHEWING-GUMS... specifically suited and meant for this purpose..... These ones may be taken singly without the prior usage of medicine... or as a supplement to the medicine already taken. The Chewing-gums are to be constantly kept in the mounth and chewed until the mouth gets enough saliva secretion constantly... but without over-secretion.

(3) Best felt... commonly by all without exception... is ..

... Cardomam (Aelam / Ilaaychi) + Clove (Kiraambu / Lavang)...

Keep the combinnation in the mouth.. and slowly swallow the mixed Saliva... constantly.. during the whole duration of travel .

(4) Never Over-eat nor keep the Stomach Empty... Take a little food only at a time along with the least quantum of Water or any Liquid

(5) Ensure the minimum of SALT and SOUR substances especially in a single taste predominantly.

(7) Prior to commencement of Journey... take a few Biscuits of easily digestible variety.

(8) Don't take any Food.. without apetite....or Hunger.... during the journey.

(9) Chewing Peppermints also helps

Wow...that's great...Keep going... :thumbsup:

I won't be availbale for 2 months from now... will continue with the thread after that... :wave:

Thanks for all those tips Mr.Sudhaama... I'm a bit worried coz I need to take my exams once I reach there... So trying my best to reach there in good health... 8)

I don't think so, as far as i know 10 Cal =1g of fat, so to loose a pound of fat, you will need to loose 4545 cal, on average men need 2,500 calories with 95 g of fat and 7 g salt, while women need 2,000 calories with 75g of fat, 5g salt.

as long as you burn of what you have consumed, you will never gain weight, but to lose weight you must burn off more cal than you consume.

the other thing, i think you said, 15 -25 g of protien per day, it's ok for normal man, but if one is thinking of body building you need to consume protien amount which is equal to to your body , so for example I weigh 140 lbs so I should consume 140 g of Protein a day, I am a veggie, so that does not help me a lot :cry: , any ideas where I can get loads of protien from a veggie source QUICKLY & PRACTICALY, i know soya products, milk, beans dal, pulses ..are high in protien, but i am after some thing that is very easy and quick to consume, as I don't have time to cook! :(

another question,

Could you please tell me ,How many calories in the following food?

1) 1 chapatii
2) 1 ghee paratta
3) 2-3 standard spoons of Rice
4) 2-3 standard spoons of any veggie curries?

many thanks Dev for your help.

Sudhama sir, hello :D
