oj and nausea

johndela1 · Post by **johndela1** » Sat 09 May 2009 06:19

My wife has been trying to drink OJ, but it makes her vomit about 1-2 hours after drinking it.

Yesterday I gave her glass from one orange with no OO and she still got sick. any ideas?

-Allergic reaction to oranges? Can she eat whole oranges?

- (Allergic) reaction to pesticides? Are the oranges organic?

- Too acidic for her stomach?

-Low blood sugar induced nausea? Does she eat/drink within the 1-2 hours after the juice?

Thats really weird.
It cannot be the (higher) sugar content, because the vomit response is too much delayed for that.
Did those oranges used for juicing and eating actually from the same supply?

She has had this problem for years. It seems like any orange she eats is ok and every time she drinks it is making her sick.

But to answer your question, no. I assumed they aren't that different.

And what if she drinks the juice with the pulp added back in?

I haven't tried adding pulp back.

How would this help? By slowing the sugar? by the way, olive oil and OJ make her sick, too.

can't it be she is drinking it to fast? (maybe she can try taking smaller zips and/or more time between them?)

Zip it up!

There are a number of confusing things in english (also for native english speakers btw), like your and you're, to and too, its and it's, etc.

Should 3-4 ozs of juice do this at all? She drinks it over 5 minutes.
