Vomiting is the body's way of expelling dangerous material from the digestive tract. Sometimes, this can be a lifesaver. Prolonged vomit can of course cause some problems. Dehydration is top of this list, but the corrosive acids into the stomach can hurt the esophagus and even damage the teeth. After a long time, malnutrition can even come into play. So, while your body may be doing you a favor by vomiting once in a while, if this happens a lot, it can become part of the problem.
