NAUSEA AND VOMITING

Introduction

That uneasy feeling in your belly occasionally accompanied by throwing up is often caused by motion sickness, your body's response to consuming bad food or water, over exposure to the sun or heat, over-consumption of alcohol or accompanied by other illnesses like the flu. Anti nausea medication can help but remember that most will leave you feeling quite sleepy.
