Omega-3s show symptom relief
We aimed to see how omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil could ease nausea and other symptoms in patients with advanced lung cancer suffering from Systemic Immune-Metabolic Syndrome (SIMS). The study involved a small group of patients divided into treatment groups, some receiving fish oil and others a combination of fish oil with celecoxib.

After six weeks, we noted improvements in appetite, fatigue, and lower inflammation markers in both fish oil groups. Interestingly, those who received fish oil alongside celecoxib showed even greater benefits in weight gain and muscle strength. These findings suggest that fish oil may help manage certain symptoms associated with nausea but not specifically reduce it alone.

Dietary changes improve GI symptoms
We explored how women with endometriosis experience gastrointestinal issues, including nausea and abdominal pain. In a prospective study involving fifty women, we analyzed motility in the gastrointestinal tract and assessed the impact of dietary changes and medication.

After 8 weeks of treatment that included reducing carbs and incorporating omega 3 fatty acids, we observed a significant drop in overall symptoms. This suggests that addressing dietary habits can greatly improve gastrointestinal functioning and alleviate discomfort for those with endometriosis.

Dysmenorrhea influences pregnancy nausea
We conducted a retrospective cohort study to investigate the relationship between nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) and dysmenorrhea measured by a verbal rating scale. Our research included 443 pregnant women, divided into those experiencing NVP and a control group.

From our findings, we noticed a clear association between moderate to severe dysmenorrhea and a heightened risk of NVP, especially during the first trimester. This suggests that those with painful menstrual symptoms may face an increased likelihood of nausea and vomiting as part of their pregnancy experience.

Importantly, we also examined the impact of periconceptional supplementation with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Our results indicated that taking DHA could potentially lower the risk of NVP, offering a glimmer of hope for managing nausea during pregnancy. This suggests that combining DHA with standard prenatal care might be beneficial for those who struggle with these symptoms.

Overall, our study sheds light on the intricate connections between menstrual pain and pregnancy-related nausea, emphasizing the potential protective role of DHA in improving women's health during this time.

Great! Unlike another Garden Of Life Omega, this one didn’t cause any fishy burps or digestive issues like nausea or sickness. I experienced no adverse effects at all.

We conducted a systematic review of 21 randomized controlled trials involving prescription omega-3 fatty acids (RxOME3FAs) to evaluate their safety and tolerability.

While the results showed that RxOME3FAs are generally safe, we did note that they can lead to some side effects, such as nausea and a fishy taste. Interestingly, those using omega-3s experienced more gastrointestinal issues compared to a control group.

Overall, additional studies are needed to further understand long-term impacts and confirm safety.
