So, will Coke help with nausea? Sometimes, if you’re lucky, and if your nausea is the right kind of mild and stupid. It’s not a substitute for actual medical advice, a doctor, or a proper antacid. But in a pinch, when the only thing in your fridge is leftover pizza and a two-liter, a few tiny sips can be the difference between a horrible night and a tolerable one.
Just remember: you are not a coffee table experiment. If you’re nauseous for more than a day, or if you’re vomiting uncontrollably, please put down the soda can and call someone who went to medical school. But for those 2 AM bathroom-floor moments? Go ahead, crack that red can. Your grandmother, and a 19th-century pharmacist, would approve.
