Reminds me of that guy who started drinking water upside down to train his swallow muscles and cure his chronic heartburn.

There's some science on training those muscles, even without upside down drinking. "Dry swallowing" while on an incline seems to do the trick just fine.

Thank you for posting this! I will give it a shot.

In Japan, I learned to drink water upside down to stop hiccups. Works for me, whereas drinking normally doesn't.

I suck in a lungful of air, hold it in as long as I can, then when I can't hold it any more, suck in even more air. Basically take in as much air and hold as long as you can, and the extra gulps of air I think open up and "reset" your throat.

Sometimes it takes a couple of goes but it has always worked for me to get rid of hiccups.

How do you get your body to be upside down?

You bend over and curl your head towards your body.

Did it work?
