Any time I've ever had an upset stomach ache or hang over I eat a pickle or drink some of the juice and within minutes I feel 100% better .Im asking because it just happened and it made me wonder what the heck is it about pickles/pickle juice that does this??

Your'e experiencing a form of indigestion- The acid content of the vinegar in the pickle or pickle juice aids in digestion, thus the "upset stomach" feeling is almost instantly gone

Usually because of indigestion but also be careful drinking too much pickle juice can give you a stomach ache and might just make it worse

I'll say that if you read the label on a bottle of vinegar, it tells you it is 5% acidic, that may be a key to the puzzle. Also if you have athletes feet, and you soak your feet in cider vinegar, it will kill the fungus causing the malady. (But will burn when you first stick your feet in !

I know that the high amount of salt helps combat dehydration and cramping, which is why its used as a sports drink (and for hangovers). Perhaps its related to that.
