Add two drams of carbonate of magnesia to a cupful of milk, and drink it whenever the rising is experienced.
Eating a raw turnip will also take away the smarting sensation.
The following effervescing drink is also good:— The juice of an orange, with loaf sugar to flavour, and, in proportion to the acidity of the orange, a little bicarbonate of soda. Mix the orange juice, sugar, and water together in a tumbler, then add the soda; stir, and drink while effervescing.
