![]() Slow emptying of the stomach is known as gastroparesis. When these bacteria are out of balance and our butyrate producing bacteria are not present in sufficient quantities, we can see the gut slowing down. One of the roles of Butyric acid is to regulate the nerves that support muscle function to push the digested food downward through the digestive tract. In IBS and in particular SIBO (Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) there can be an imbalance in the beneficial bacteria, particularly in the one’s the produce a beneficial compound called Butyric Acid. (Source: NCBI) Altered motility (movement of food) through the intestines can also lead to the symptom of nausea. Constant nausea or feeling the need to vomit is another sign that something is out of balance. Inflammation and sensitivity in the nerves that line the gut are 2 key factors that contribute to the sensation of nausea. However, in IBS the gut is in such a sensitive state which can lead it to over respond to almost any food. Even in those without digestive issues, eating a food that doesn’t agree with us can lead to nausea. In IBS, the body is also sending these messages that there’s an imbalance in the digestive system. A sharp pain in our finger, perhaps we have a splinter buried in there. If there’s a ache in a muscle or a joint then perhaps we need to rest it. The body like to give us clues that something isn’t quite right. ![]() (Source: WEBMD) The symptom of nausea can be particularly problematic as it impacts appetite. Some describe this as food anxiety which causes a lack of appetite and the feeling of butterflies in the stomach which may feel similar to nausea but rarely lead to being sick or vomiting. Not feeling ready to eat until lunch time is not uncommon.Īs IBS symptoms often include abdominal pain and unpredictable reactions to food there can also be apprehension around mealtime. In these longer standing digestive situations there isn’t the need to be sick. In other situations, if there is the feeling of sickness, actually being sick resolves the issue. Perhaps surprisingly, it’s this ongoing feeling of nausea that some find the most frustrating. It’s these small things, like going out for dinner, that digestive symptoms disrupt the most. Not only is it a very unpleasant feeling, it can take a lot of the joy out of eating and socialising. Waking up feeling sick or having little to no appetite can be another disruptive element of digestive issues. Nausea is likely more common than vomiting. Nausea, however, may not always be something we think about when talking about IBS but it commonly comes along with these other symptoms. It’s also not uncommon to go through periods where symptoms are far more manageable but then have times where they worsen, such as during a flare-up. These symptoms can often improve of resolve after going to the toilet but commonly return soon after. ![]() The major symptoms of common digestive disorders include recurrent abdominal pain and bloating, heartburn, diarrhoea, and constipation. What are symptoms of IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) and nausea? Along with the bloating, altered bowel patterns (constipation or diarrhoea), gas and pain, the feeling of sickness or nausea is a very common aspect of digestive imbalances and disorders such as IBS. While the range of digestive symptoms can vary dramatically, these can offer clues as you what’s contributing to your condition. ![]() By addressing this underlying issue it’s possible to manage IBS symptoms with the ultimate aim to treat IBS so symptoms fully resolve. It’s about working to discover what that diagnosis means for you and your gut health and how to get things back on track. This means that there isn’t a ‘one size fits all’ approach to treatment for IBS-related nausea. It can present at different times, in unique ways and have a variety of triggers. In regard to IBS, everyone has their own unique version of this condition. Even if you have been diagnosed with a condition, you may only be experiencing a small amount of the common symptoms. ![]() The truth is that digestive issues are varied.
