“So why are you suddenly feeling sick after just a few minutes on the elliptical (oval)?
“What’s happening is this: As you begin to exercise, up to 80 percent of your blood flow is being diverted away from your stomach and GI tract and rushed to your hard-working muscles and lungs, says Tamara Hew-Butler, DPM, PhD, an associate professor of exercise science at Oakland University in Rochester, MI. For some people, this shift in blood flow can result in feeling nauseated.”
"Fortunately, you can minimize or eliminate exercise-induced nausea by adjusting a few elements of your routine.
Solutions included: not eating too soon before exercise, enough water, the intensity of the workout.
“In the end, finding out what’s causing your exercise-induced nausea is a process of self-experimentation, Hew-Butler (above) says. “You have to find out what you can tolerate, and what makes it better and what makes it worse.”
