IBS Nausea-2 Natural Remedies Guaranteed To Eliminate Nausea Associated With IBS

By Alison Harris

Nausea is one very common symptom for people who suffer from Irritable bowel syndrome. It is not exactly known what causes it even though recent research now points to an overgrowth of bad bacteria in the small intestines a major contributing factor.

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.

What causes this symptom in each IBS sufferer seems to be unique and so what works for one person may not necessarily work for another.

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.

One thing 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 manner.

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 that will help ease IBS Nausea.

1. Pure Peppermint Oil: is one if not the most effective remedy for digestive problems and that includes IBS. It calms the smooth wall of the stomach and intestines. Apart from that it also has analgesic properties and is very good for abdominal cramps, spasms and abdominal pain.

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

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

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