What is dumping syndrome?
After certain surgeries (like gastric bypass or gastrectomy), the stomach's ability to regulate the release of food into the small intestine is impaired. This leads to a rapid and uncontrolled emptying of stomach contents into the duodenum. Dumping syndrome occurs when food, particularly hyperosmolar food, enters the small intestine too quickly after eating. This rapid entry leads to a shift of fluid from the bloodstream into the intestine, causing various symptoms. Early dumping symptoms, like nausea and diarrhea, occur within 30 minutes, while late symptoms, including hypoglycemia, can appear 1-3 hours later
