What Is Dumping Syndrome?
4. Diarrhea
In addition to the fluids that we drink, our food also contains water. The water from what we eat and drink is absorbed into the body by the digestive system and it takes a while for this water to be absorbed. If the body does not get enough time to absorb the water then it will be passed out of the other end.
Dumping syndrome causes food to pass through the body too quickly, meaning that not enough water is absorbed. This results in the unpleasant but well-known symptom that we know as diarrhea. Anybody that is experiencing this needs to be careful that they don’t become dehydrated.
