The most common cause of vomiting is infection. Some germs may enter your stomach along with the food that you eating. These germs then cause your stomach to push the food up rather than down and you land up vomiting. Sometimes, vomiting can occur due to overeating or even eating the wrong combination of food. Thus, anything that upsets the stomach may cause vomiting.

Vomiting is a reflex action because it is an automatic reaction to a stimulus, e.g seeing something nasty.
