Lemon and other citrus fruits contain limonene, an essential oil, which has been found to increase blood flow in the cerebrum. More blood flow means more oxygen, hence the sensations of dizziness and nausea are relieved. In addition. the olfactory region of the brain (region that controls smell) is connected to the regions that control memory, heart rate and hormones. Thus the brain sends impulses to the body leading to changes such as relaxation, and calming effect. This helps in relieving of vomiting sensation. read less

The smell of citrus can cut through the feeling of nausea, calm your stomach.It helps release neurotransmitters, like serotonin or endorphins. These chemicals then block other chemicals that may be out of balance and/or causing you to feel sick. I am guessing though.

Can a triangle have two obtuse angles? Give reason for your answer.
