Avoid Motion Sickness With Trip Ease

The main causes of Motion Sickness are:

Avoid Motion sickness

Age

Racial and Genetic Differences

Pre Trip

Conflicting Messages
One message or signal comes from the middle (or inner) ear that controls balance and the other message comes from the eyes. During changes in position caused by travel these two signals conflict or disagree. Or seen another way, reading a book the view remains stable while the body is twisted and turned during travel. These two signals end up at the nausea centre of the brain and with such confusion is it a surprise that motion sickness is the result.

Age
Children suffer more from motion sickness than adults and usually adults over 50 rarely suffer from motion sickness. Its a case where the clichés are true, "you will grow out of it" or "its just a stage you are going through"

Racial and Genetic Differences
As you may have observed some families suffer from motion sickness more than others, there is also a racial difference which was shown in a medical trial. The Asian-American children suffered the most motion sickness, 100% of them and it was so bad for some of them they asked to leave the trial early.

Pre Trip
Many times the previous 24 hours are the reason for motion sickness not the journey itself. Hangovers, over tiredness, anxiety, minor illnesses all contribute to motion sickness. A heavy meal, full of fat and possibly over spiced does not help either. Too many carbonated and or alcoholic drinks can unsettle your stomach which will make you more sensitive to motion sickness during the journey. Therefore if you are not fit, rested and healthy you will probably suffer more motion sickness than you usually do.

Trip Ease: Technical Specifications

Trip ease is available in 30-tablet strip packet and is manufactured in accordance with WHO good manufacturing practice with 6-monthly audits by a regulatory government department.

Trip ease is manufactured according to the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States, (HPUS).

Trip ease is listed with the FDA for over the counter sales in the United States of America.
The National Drug Code for trip ease is 059672-0732-2 and barcode of 750980007325.

Each 340mg tablet contains six homeopathic remedies effective in countering the effects of motion sickness. Each pack contains enough tablets for at least ten trips of at least three hours duration.

Indications

Motion sickness is a complex condition which occurs when travelling in cars, trains, boats and planes. The main, but not the only cause, is movement, sometime violent movement, which causes motion sickness. Other causes are a genetic disposition and problems from hangovers, other sicknesses, lack of fresh air, and a lack of quality sleep.

Dosage

One tablet of trip ease should be taken at the start of each trip, and one every hour while the problem persists.

Warnings and precautions

Trip ease can be used by travellers of all ages. If a user already suffers from a major medical problem, normal caution should be exercised in travelling on long journeys. If after arrival the symptoms of motion sickness continue, professional help should be sought. Trip ease does not counter the effects of existing medical disorders when travelling, or the effects of alcohol or general exhaustion.

Interactions

Trip ease may be taken with any other medication. Like other homeopathic remedies, trip ease is most effective when taken separately from food and drink, but has been specially formulated so that it may if necessary be taken in association with food and/or drink, i.e. coffee.

Adverse effects

With the minute doses involved there is little possibility of adverse effects. There has never been any recorded adverse effect from homeopathic remedies above 12C. All remedies used in trip ease are 30C, well above the 12C limit.

Over dosage

Should a client take more trip ease than recommended, no harmful side effects should be expected, owing to the minute dilutions of active ingredients employed in homeopathic preparations.

X-Rays, coffee, mint and homeopathic products

Some poorly manufactured homeopathic products are harmed by exposure to x-rays, coffee or aromatic products like mint. Trip ease does not fit into this category. It has been robustly manufactured to ensure that it is effective when exposed to either x-rays or coffee or mint.
