Vitamin D and nausea in gastroparesis
We delved into an intriguing question: how do low vitamin D levels affect nausea in people experiencing gastroparesis, a condition that slows gastric emptying? By measuring the vitamin D levels of patients from the Gastroparesis Clinical Consortium Registry, we aimed to uncover the relationships between vitamin D, nausea, and gastric function.

Our findings revealed that over half of the patients had low vitamin D levels, specifically 56.1% of the 513 individuals studied. We observed a clear association between these low levels of vitamin D and increased experiences of nausea and vomiting. This was particularly notable in patients with delayed gastric emptying, where those with low vitamin D levels reported significantly more nausea.

While the study showed a correlation, it did not address whether supplementing with vitamin D could directly alleviate these symptoms. Instead, we found that lower vitamin D levels also related to a greater retention of food in the stomach after meals, which hints at a connection to gastric neuromuscular dysfunction. Overall, our study emphasized a noteworthy link between vitamin D and nausea but stopped short of confirming any direct treatment benefits.

We explored how vitamin D levels affect nausea and other premenstrual symptoms (PMS) while considering the influence of genetics. Our study involved 716 women between the ages of 20 and 29, who provided blood samples to measure their vitamin D status and completed questionnaires about their PMS experiences.

By classifying participants as either vitamin D sufficient or insufficient based on their plasma levels, we examined how these levels correlated with nausea, alongside a specific genetic variation in the vitamin D receptor gene. Interestingly, we found that women with the CC genotype who had low vitamin D levels were more likely to experience nausea, whereas those with the TT genotype exhibited a low likelihood of suffering from nausea under similar conditions.

Overall, we can say that vitamin D's impact on nausea does not occur in isolation; it is modified by genetic factors. This highlights the importance of considering both vitamin D status and genetic background when trying to understand the factors contributing to PMS symptoms like nausea.

Muscle tension relieved
Very good. After a period of use, the muscle tension is alleviated, and it does not induce nausea.

No nausea reported
I opted for this product due to my minimal dairy intake. I wanted 100% citrate with vitamin D3, and after choosing it, I found it satisfactory. While the tablets are large, I manage to take 2-3 daily without experiencing nausea or dizziness. The taste is slightly chalky, and I suspect my hair loss might derive from my dairy-free diet. Nonetheless, I plan to order again.

Mild nausea noted
When I take calcium, I notice my joints begin to crunch, which isn't pleasant but suggests cartilage growth. The tablets are large and angular, making them cumbersome to swallow. I've observed mild nausea after taking them; however, splitting the doses throughout the day alleviates the issue. Additionally, I've experienced slight drowsiness, which I suspect might be linked to these vitamins.
