Eating before or after workout?

Hello,
Let me start this out with saying I understand everyone is different. If my boyfriend eats before working out he will feel sick, my roommate feels quesy after a workout and can't eat for hours, and I have to eat heavy meals prior to hitting the gym or else I'll feel like I'm about to faint as soon as my blood starts pumping and I'll instantly feel the need to eat afterwards. My question is, for health and muscle gains when is the best time to eat?
Thanks in advance!
