Summary

This study investigates whether the gut hormone glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) can reduce feelings of nausea. GIP is naturally released after meals and is administered intravenously to healthy participants during the experiment. Nausea is induced using either glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), another gut hormone, or apomorphine, a medication known to trigger nausea. By combining these substances, the study aims to determine whether GIP can alleviate nausea. The findings may improve understanding of interactions between the gut and the brain.
