IBS Nausea: How To Eliminate This Uncomfortable Symptom Of IBS.

By Alison Harris

Nausea is one of the many symptoms associated with Irritable bowel syndrome. It is not exactly known what causes this nausea but recent research points to an excess of bad bacteria in the small intestines.

One thing that is for certain is that IBS sufferers have very sensitive colon muscles. This might be the reason why they sometimes feel nauseous and experience a bloating.

The cause of nausea in each irritable bowel syndrome sufferer also seems to be unique to each individual and therefore what works for one patient might not work for the other.

This can be frustrating because you essentially become a guinea pig as your doctor has to keep trying different drugs on you to see which one would resolve the problem.

You must bear in mind is that whatever drug you doctor may prescribe for you to use, it will not treat or cure your IBS. It will only mask your symptoms and not cure it in any way

Other common symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome apart from nausea include:

1. Constipation

2. Abdominal pain and/or discomfort

3. Flatulence/gas

4. Stomach making funny noises

5.Bloating

6. Diarrhea

Some simple triggers of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Nausea:

A) Gluten (in grains like wheat, oats, rye)

B) Sugar

C) Some medications

D) Stress

E) Coffee and Tea

F) Spicy/Hot foods

G) Sweeteners, and of course

H) Alcohol.

Simple steps to relieve IBS Nausea.

1. Pure Peppermint Oil: is one of the most effective remedies for digestive issues and that includes Irritable Bowel Syndrome. It calms the smooth wall of the stomach and intestines. Apart from that it also has analgesic (pain killing)properties and is very good for stomach cramps, spasms and stomach pain.

It is best taken in capsule form, but make sure that the brand you are using are enteric coated, which means that they will reach the stomach before dissolving, otherwise you could end up with heartburn

You could also try peppermint tea, which may not as effective as peppermint oil, but will make a significant difference to your symptoms.

2. Boost the amount of healthy bacteria in your gut: It is crucial that you boost the amount of healthy bacteria in your gut. The best way to do this is to reduce the amount of sugar that you consume, eat more fermented foods like olives, yogurt, and sour cream, and take high quality probiotics on a frequent basis.
