Relief of Nausea

Prev

When you experience nausea or vomiting, the last thing you may want to think about is food. Weight loss may occur during this time so you need to pay special attention to the amount of food you eat in order to help maintain your weight. Here are suggestions to help you feel better and to keep up your daily good nutrition. Check those that you will try.

• Have small, frequent meals.
• Avoid liquids at mealtime. They should be taken 1 hour before or 1 hour after meals.
• Eat a cracker or piece of dry toast after resting, but before getting up.
• Avoid fried or fatty foods.
• Rest following meals.
• Avoid cooking odors; they may increase your nausea.
• Suck on hard candy.

• Have clear juices, 7-Up, tea, Jell-O, soup, broth or water to replace the extra fluid you lose from vomiting. (Watch your weight gains between runs very closely.)
