Lime may help alleviate hiccups for some people due to its sourness, which can stimulate the vagus nerve and interrupt the hiccup reflex. The acidity can provoke a strong taste response that may distract the body from the hiccup cycle.

Other remedies, such as holding your breath or drinking water, are also commonly used.
