Why do I feel nauseous every evening?

Discomfort in the human gastrointestinal tract often causes pronounced nausea and vomiting. In fact, not only adults but also many children frequently experience dry heaving. So, what causes nausea specifically at night?

What Causes Nausea Specifically at Night?

Nighttime nausea may result from gastritis or from consuming excessively greasy meals. Patients should undergo gastrointestinal examinations to identify the precise underlying cause and receive targeted treatment under a physician’s guidance. In daily life, avoid overly greasy foods; refrain from smoking and alcohol consumption; maintain a light, balanced diet rich in vegetables and fruits; and avoid carbonated beverages. Engage regularly in outdoor physical activity, breathe fresh air, and strengthen your immune system—these measures can help alleviate symptoms. If gastrointestinal inflammation is diagnosed, strictly adhere to your physician’s instructions regarding antibiotic use to expedite recovery from nausea.

Nausea occurring specifically at night is often difficult to resolve with conventional medications; therefore, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for holistic regulation is recommended. Maintain dietary discipline: opt for light, easily digestible meals; avoid cold, greasy, spicy, or otherwise irritating foods; eat smaller, more frequent meals; chew food thoroughly and slowly; and avoid overeating or binge eating. Include fresh vegetables and fruits in moderation—but avoid consuming cold fruits. Cultivate a positive emotional state, ensure adequate rest, avoid staying up late, and prevent excessive physical or mental fatigue. Medications such as Sanjiu Weitai Granules, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, Omeprazole (Losec), and Mosapride may be used as appropriate. Additionally, drink plenty of warm water throughout the day.

If you experience nausea specifically at night, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and treatment. We hope this information proves helpful to you.
