Do you experience this on sea level hikes or only at high altitude? If the latter, I would try to spend 1 - 3 nights at @8000' in the eastern Sierra (Mammoth Lakes or Tuolumne Meadows?) before startng the JMT. I think it's largely due change in altitude well as climate.

I need some advice.  I am section hiking the JMT.  My problem is that I get severe nausea.  I lose my appetite the minute I hit the trail.  I force myself to eat but still lose about a pound a day.  I drink lots of water to stay hydrated.  Any ideas that might settle my stomach and put a smile back on my face?
