Throwing up after overeating, overdrinking, or for other reasons is very normal. But do you know people also throw up voluntarily?

Yes, you heard it right. They try to induce throwing up. The reasons may vary, such as swallowing something toxic, getting pangs of nausea, or feeling any other discomfort in your throat or esophagus. Inducing vomit is not recommended for everyone, and you must do it after having a consultation with your doctor. There are a few reasons why you want to induce it. Below listed are a few of them.

You can use different ways and means to induce vomiting from your system. We repeat, seek advice from your family physician before you try any of the below-listed methods to induce vomit.

One of the simplest ways to make yourself vomit purposely is to drink plenty of water. It is always easier to vomit when you have a full stomach. Drinking water is the fastest way to make yourself feel full. Having enough water eases the strain on your throat, stomach, and esophagus when you throw up.

Water also helps in diluting the contents of the stomach for easy expulsion. However, we advise you not to throw up immediately after gulping water. Wait for ten minutes or so before you do that.

It may sound strange but using a tongue cleaner is one of the quickest ways to throw up. Many people gag every time they use a tongue cleaner. This phenomenon is known as the pharyngeal reflex. It gets triggered when something touches the back part of your tongue, the roof of your mouth, or your tonsils.

The process is straightforward. Run the cleaner over your tongue three or four times from your root to the front part. You will soon start throwing up.

Mustard, the common ingredient in your kitchen, can be used to throw up. All you need to do is mix a teaspoon or two of mustard in a glass of water. Drink the solution in one go.

Mustard possesses natural emetic properties. Its consumption will make you nauseous, and you will start vomiting in no time. But beware, do not make this remedy your habit. Raw mustard comprises high amounts of sodium which may not be good for your health.

Another easy way to induce puke is to use your finger. Wash your fingers before you do it. Stick them inside your throat. Use your index and middle finger to do the process.

You will start gagging in no time, which will induce your vomit. Even if this remedy doesn’t work, desist from using more than two fingers at a time. Do not be rough with the process.

Do you suddenly start feeling nauseous when you see someone puking in front of you? Does the sight or sound of retching send you rushing to the nearest bathroom?

You can use this hack to induce vomiting voluntarily. Picture someone vomiting, and you will start feeling the same sensations in no time. You can also watch some videos where a person is vomiting, and it will help you, we promise.

Another effective way to help you vomit quickly is gargling warm water. Keep gargling warm water for at least ten seconds at a stretch. Warm water induces nausea.

This gurgling activity at the back of your mouth brings forth the gag reflex, thus making you vomit after a few minutes of performing this remedy.

Like a tongue cleaner, you can use a toothbrush and induce vomit. This method will be comfortable and helpful for those who are not very comfortable with the idea of sticking a finger down the throat.

Rub the toothbrush against the back of your tongue and watch yourself throw up immediately. The method works with anyone and everyone under the sun.

Another kitchen ingredient, castor oil, is equally helpful in making you throw up in no time. The purgative property of castor oil induces vomit. However, we advise you not to drink too much castor oil as its overdose may be harmful to your body.

Do not gulp castor oil directly. Add one tablespoon of oil to a glass of lukewarm water. Mix the solution well and drink it in one go. You will start feeling pukish after a while.

Another effective method that helps you feel pukish is gargling with egg whites. The thought itself seems gross, but this remedy works for everyone. You may separate the whites from the egg and gargle with them.

The unpleasant smell and taste of raw egg whites will make you throw up instantly.

Mixing a teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water and gulping it down is another remedy that helps you vomit within a few minutes.

However, this method has its pros and cons, and we do not advise you to try it frequently. Consuming too much baking soda may lead to severe health complications.

Bloodroot herb is an effective remedy that can make you vomit voluntarily. Also known as bloodwort, bloodroot is a plant used traditionally to cure numerous health issues. This herb has medicinal importance and is used in many alternative therapies and medications.

Do not consume this herb without having a word with your doctor. When taken in high doses, it may become toxic and harm your health.

When you throw up successfully after trying the above-listed methods, take a hot shower. Blow your nose thoroughly to remove the residue of vomit from your sinuses. Use a mouthwash to gargle your mouth. Sip water and hydrate yourself. If you still feel bittersweet, drink some lime juice, orange juice, or cranberry juice to feel better.
