To date I've not used it but two folks I've paddled with worked up some hot spit and felt greatly relieved that I had some available on the water. The kind of whiskey I drink though, doesn't give me heartburn, Doug, maybe you should switch brands! ; ) Cheers, Rob G *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

Does Rolaids really work for seasickness (the symptoms?) Cool. >The kind of whiskey I drink though, doesn't give me heartburn, Doug, maybe you should switch brands! ; ) I'll vouch for Rob. He drinks good whisky--smooth stuff! (Whisky with no 'e', right?!)

It worked in both sea trials for a guy and a gal on different days. It works for me as acid percolating in the gut is what gets me nauseous. One of my coaches, Rowland Woolven, carries small hard candies as he believes that seasickness can be worked out by constant movement of the lower jaw, correcting imblances in the inner ear canal. I've not tried that, though. > > >The kind of whiskey I drink though, doesn't give me heartburn, Doug, > maybe you should switch brands! ; ) > > I'll vouch for Rob.
