Vitamins
Studies have shown that taking vitamin B6 can help some women relieve nausea in pregnancy, although it’s not known exactly how it works.
Also known as pyridoxine, it can help the body absorb protein and carbohydrate, but can cause nerve problems in large doses so always check with your doctor before taking supplements. Natural sources of B6 include bananas, nuts, fish, avocados, wholegrains and dried beans.
B12 is also believed to help, and can be found in eggs and dairy products.
