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.

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.

Omega from Solgar is the best omega. The capsules are large but not unpleasant. No nausea, which is essential, especially as I was pregnant.

One of the best omega-3 supplements. I’m a nursing mother and choose my vitamins carefully. Though initially put off by its size, I’ve grown accustomed to it. Crucially, there’s no unpleasant nausea.

Reduced nausea

I’m very pleased with the prompt delivery and quality packaging. I take one capsule daily and have already noticed benefits, including reduced headaches and nausea.
2
Terrible nausea
The capsules are large, and if not taken correctly, they cause a strong fish taste and terrible nausea. I recommend taking them with food.
0
Severe nausea
The dosage of omega in each capsule is excessive; doctors recommend smaller, more frequent doses. The pill is large and difficult to swallow, and I encountered severe nausea within the first two days, accompanied by fish belch. Additionally, the omega in triglyceride form is reportedly harmful.

I ordered Solgar based on widespread recommendations, but it was a disappointment. It caused unpleasant fishy belching and nausea. I won’t recommend this brand.

Severe nausea

I found it difficult to swallow these capsules as I felt very nauseous. I plan to try taking them in the morning after food, yet I still have nausea throughout the day, which I believe is a direct response to this omega.

No nausea
Omega 3 I consumed during pregnancy was pleasant, and I experienced no nausea afterwards. However, the large capsule size was a drawback.
