Erases Indigestion - A Bit of Ice (Authored by: FIRST Magazine, October 21, 2024 Issue)
Posted by TAMI FIERLE
Stress disrupts the nerves that control digestion, tripling your risk of queasiness, bloat and other GI upsets. But stretching out with an ice pack on the back of your neck can settle an upset stomach in as little as 5 minutes, say University of Washington investigators. That's because cooling the back of your neck activates a series of nerves (the parasympathetic nervous system) that encourage digestive enzyme release, speed stomach emptying and prevent painful cramps.
