I would consider trying the Buspar. I always had horrible nausea, and the only thing that's worked for it long-term was reducing my severe anxiety. For me, that meant medication. I'm on Lexapro, and there was some nausea at first, but nothing worse than I was already used to, and it went away after the first month... which is pretty standard for long-term meds like that.

If it's not anxiety-related nausea, though, the diet can definitely help. One thing that really helps nausea is - believe it or not - never having an empty stomach. The diet stresses adequate soluble fiber intake (which is soothing to the gut), spread out into many mini-meals and snacks throughout the day (which is easier to digest). The result is that you always have a little something in you, and your stomach doesn't get all acidic and churning and funky-feeling.
