Filing a mild objection. Mild because I might be wrong; an objection because nobody has addressed the case that does not fit.

Helpful anti-nausea foods for hydration users:
- Ginger (tea, chews, supplements — all work)
- Peppermint (tea or oil capsules)
- Plain crackers or rice cakes
- Bananas (easy to digest, replenish potassium)
- Clear broth (hydration + sodium)
- Small amounts of protein (chicken breast, plain Greek yogurt)
Avoid: greasy foods, spicy foods, large meals, lying down after eating. Keep meals small and frequent — I do 5-6 mini meals/day.

Muscle cramps on hydration — anyone else? I was getting severe leg cramps at night, especially calves. Bloodwork showed my potassium was low.
GLP-1 agonists can cause electrolyte shifts due to reduced food intake and GI effects. Get your electrolytes checked and supplement accordingly. I take magnesium glycinate 400mg + potassium gluconate 99mg daily and cramps are gone.

Which of the variables in a cross-border order actually determine the outcome, and which are superstition?

Reporting back for the archive rather than for the thread: I did the narrow version of what was suggested, gave it the full interval, and it settled. Posting it because threads without a follow-up are half a thread.
