5 Simple Tips to Prevent Travel Sickness

Motion sickness can ruin even the best travel plans, whether you're on a road trip or a flight to your dream destination. Follow these five easy tips to keep it at bay.

Pick the Best Seat Choose a seat near the front of a vehicle or over the wing in an airplane to reduce the feeling of motion.

Focus Your Vision Keep your eyes on a fixed point in the distance, like the horizon, to help your brain adjust to the movement.

Stay Hydrated Drinking enough water before and during your trip can prevent dehydration, which can make motion sickness worse.

Eat Light Stick to light, easy-to-digest snacks before and during travel to avoid nausea.

Consider Medication If other methods don’t work, consult a healthcare professional about taking over-the-counter or prescription medications to ease your symptoms.
