Try these :Prevention
Some cases of hiccups can be avoided by drinking in moderation, avoiding very hot or very cold food, and avoiding cold showers. Carbonated beverages when drunk through a straw deliver more gas to the stomach than when sipped from a container; therefore, avoid using straws.

They can't be prevented, but they CAN be stopped.
A teaspoon of brown sugar, that's all you need.
Second best, a teaspoon of white sugar.
Third best, breath in and out of a brown paper bag for two minutes.
The brown sugar is the best. It will always work unless you have some serious medicals problems. I'll bet $12K on it!

They can't be prevented. Some times I get hiccups after eating an apple. I have no idea why.

People get hiccups for different reasons. I knew someone who got them from eating eggs, another when she got excited and breathed wrong.
BUT, if you get them a lot, your doctor can give you someting to keep from having the spasm of the diaphram so much. Like Valium.

1. Drink two cups plain water, or
2. Drink one cup sugar water
3. From the first one, hold your breath for ONE MINUTE.
4. Breathe; into your nose and out of your mouth.

I don't know if they can actually be "prevented," but if you get hiccups, you can stop them by sticking your fingers in your ears & simultaneously gulping a large glass of water.
