Don't ya just hate it when you eat bread too fast...

...or something just as dry or in large amounts (like rice) and you wind up clogging your food track, giving yourself the hiccups? I sure do hate that. It just happened yet again a while ago while eating a hotdog. I had to make yet another mad dash to the frig to pour myself a glass of apple juice so I can unclog the blockage and stop hiccuping. Anyone else get this when they eat too much bread/rice/etc too fast?

Chewing is a foreign concept, but I hear it works.

I don't think that's what causes hiccups.

i always herd that hiccups are caused by your diafram being out of sink with your lungs...

No, I do chew my food. I just eat it too fast.

Then why do I get the hiccups then, eh? I think the blockage of the food must cause the brain to think I'm choking, making my lungs try to clear the blockage by hiccuping. However, the food track is the tube to your stomach. Your wind pipe is what goes to your lungs.

Hiccups are spasms caused by your diaphragm when it becomes irritated. It can be caused by a number of things, including eating too much, eating too quickly, irritation in the throat or stomach, excitement, or nervousness.

It never gives me hiccups... It does hurt a lot, though.

I usually only get hiccups when I eat a sandwich that has Dave's Gourmet Insanity Sauce on it -- I hiccup like crazy. but I love the stuff. Drinking lots of water usually helps get it to stop.

Every once in a while, I'll get a big, painful, single hiccup when I'm eating or drinking. Then I can't swallow or anything for a few seconds because my chest/throat endured such a shock (big quick exhale equal to volume of lungs).

I've gotta eat slower.

Yeah exactly. Most the time, its from eating too much too fast (bready foods swell up) and your stomach touches your diaphragm, causes it to spasm to try to "knock away" your stomach. Try stretching your diaphragm (take deep breaths while leaning back alot), it may help relieve you of your hiccups.

I've found a fool-proof cure:

Take a glass, fill it with water. Lean over the sink and drink the glass of water upside down. Has yet to fail me.

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

No, but when I eat bread too fast it does cause me the need to breath heavily, like I swallowed a bunch of air or something.

Eating you food slower and savoring it helps, as well. :p

I don't know the science behind it, bit heres my way of getting rid of the hiccups that has almost never failed me:


All I do is breath in through my nose, and out through my mouth, slowly and controled, really concentrating on how fast I am breathing, and they always go away.
