Morning sickness seems to be intimately involved with trouble converting sulfite to sulfate. When we eat sulfur-containing foods like eggs, onion or garlic, the sulfur amino acids convert to sulfite and then we need to convert this further into sulfate. This also applies to suflur-containing supplements such as NAC. Sulfite is toxic and its excess can cause nausea, particularly morning sickness during pregnancy. Sulfate is very useful in the body. The buildup of sulfite can deplete vitamin B1 and vitamin B6, which causes many problems on its own. However, taking supplemental vitamin B6 seems to help remove excessive sulfite which is why vitamin B6 is used successfully for morning sickness. The main required nutrient that we need for the conversion of sulfite into sulfate is molybdenum. It is very important for anyone with sulfur issues, especially those with morning sickness, to consume enough molybdenum. This nutrient is very high in gluten-free oats and many different legumes such as yellow split peas. It is also high in liver. Molybdenum supplementation may also be warranted.
In addition to molybdenum, vitamin B6 and B1, consuming more salt and carbohydrate-containing foods may help:
“Some women have "morning sickness" premenstrually, and it (like the nausea of migraine) is eased by salt and carbohydrate.”
