The following suggestions may be useful in relieving nausea and vomiting: Remember, any calorie is a good calorie so eat what stays down for you. Foods may not be well tolerated include greasy or fried foods, as they take longer to leave the stomach or very sweet foods or spicy hot foods or foods with strong odors. Eat smaller, more frequent meals, that is six small meals and snacks. Drink fluids between meals, not with meals. Eat foods that are at room temperature or cooler. Hot foods may trigger nausea. Drink beverages chilled or cold. Decaffeinated soda is often well tolerated. Don't opt for diet soda, you need the calories right now. Eat slowly and rest after meals. It is best to rest sitting in an upright position for about one hour after eating. Dry toast, soda crackers, or dry pre-sweetened cereals may relieve periods of nausea. Keep track of when you feel nausea and what causes it. If continued vomiting occurs, do not eat or drink anything until the vomiting has stopped. As you feel better, try some small amounts of clear liquids (broth, Jello, apple, grape, or cranberry juice, and/or popsicles.) Tart or salty foods such as lemons
