WELCOME TO HICCUPOPS! • Hiccupops are the world’s first-ever nutritional supplement to help suppress the hiccups. Hiccupops contain a unique blend of ingredients that trigger a set of nerves in your mouth and throat that are responsible for the hiccup reflex arc. When those nerves are over-stimulated, the message from your brain to hiccup is cancelled … and they taste good too! • Hiccupops are all natural, containing the perfect combination of water, sugar and apple cider vinegar. • Hiccupops were conceived by Mallory Kievman, then a 13-year old 7th Grader in 2010. Plagued by a stubborn case of the hiccups that lasted for weeks, Mallory set out to find the perfect combination of ingredients that would help. She studied the biology behind hiccups – finding why they happen – and labored at the stove mixing a wide range of recipes until she found the right solution. She won the Connecticut Invention Convention with her invention. • Hiccups are arguably the most under-reported, under-researched malady in healthcare today. While it would be tempting to dismiss hiccups are merely a child’s cute affliction, hiccups are actually a major by-product of many medically-prescribed drugs common in the treatment of cancer, ALS, Parkinson’s and other diseases. Most commonly, hiccups and general nausea are very often associated with any surgery which involves anesthesia; anesthesia is used in more than 50 million surgeries each year. According to Dr. Yuichi Takiguchi of Chiba University Graduate School of Medicine, over 30% of all chemotherapy patients suffer from chemo-induced hiccups. • There are no agreed upon treatments for hiccups; some recommendations involve expensive drugs which can have a range of other side effects. • Hiccupops is a CT-based corporation with manufacturing based in Texas. Hiccupops are regulated by the FDA as a dietary supplement, not a drug, and so no formal FDA trials are required and no prescriptions are needed.
