What casues hick-ups?!


Question:

What casues hick-ups?


Answers:

If you eat too fast, you can swallow air along with your food and end up with a case of the hiccups.

Any other practices that might irritate the diaphragm such as eating too much (especially fatty foods) or drinking too much (drunk people hiccup) can make you prone to having hiccups.

In these instances, your stomach, which sits underneath and adjacent to the diaphragm, is distended or stretched.

Because they occur in relation to eating and drinking, hiccups are sometimes thought to be a reflex to protect you from choking.
