Another important thing to keep in mind is avoiding dehydration. Drink small amounts of salty and sweet drinks (drinks containing sugar calm the stomach better than other liquids) throughout the day to compensate for fluid loss. If drinking is difficult, try sucking on ice chips or frozen fruit pops.
2. Create a Pleasant Atmosphere
Make sure that wherever the recovering person is resting, there are no strong odors (such as tobacco smoke, perfumes, or cooking smells); the room is well-ventilated and not too hot. There should be a constant supply of water and little plain or salty snacks (such as crackers) in case their appetite comes back. Essential oils might also help relieve nausea.
