Little Known Tricks To Cure Your Body
This is an interesting read of things you can do to trick your body better. This covers things like scratching your ear to stop your throat tickling, or coughing to prevent pain from an injection.
There’s 18 tips all together, and all sound interesting, and almost plausible, enough to try and remember next time you get a blood nose.
10. Unstitch your side!
If you’re like most people, when you run, you exhale as your right foot hits the ground.
This puts downward pressure on your liver (which lives on your right side), which then tugs at the diaphragm and creates a side stitch, according to The Doctors Book of Home Remedies for Men. The fix: Exhale as your left foot strikes the ground.

When i was in the Marines we were taught to lead with our left foot when marching which translated to leading with it when running. We also would yell cadence as our left foot hit the ground, we’d literally be chanting “Left foot… left foot” out loud to make us exhale on the left foot.
As a strategy runners could easily just say “left foot” to themselves as they run to train their exhale to that foot.

you can trick your body sometimes, but it won’t happen everytime.
