Motion sickness happens when the brain receives mismatched signals from the inner ear, eyes, and body sensors.
GWAS work has identified more than 30 variants linked to motion sickness susceptibility, with some overlap with migraine and balance traits.
This result reflects research-level variation in motion-sickness biology and is not a clinical evaluation.
Age, pregnancy, type of motion (car, sea, air), reading or screens during travel, dehydration, and medications all strongly affect actual motion sickness.

DNA Genics reports genotypes based on the 'positive' strand of the human genome reference sequence (build 37/HG19). Other companies may use the opposite strand, so genotypes may need conversion for comparison.
The following peer-reviewed scientific studies support the genetic associations analyzed in this report.

Study sample: 80,494 individuals (european ancestry)
