À propos de ce contenu audio

 Your heart is pounding, you’re drenched in a cold sweat, and the room is spinning—all because you had two biscuits with your tea. Welcome to Dumping Syndrome, one of the most misunderstood and distressing complications of weight loss surgery. It’s not just a deterrent to stop you eating sugar; it’s a complex physiological reaction where your body panics because food is moving too fast. We are stripping away the medical jargon to explain exactly what happens during early and late dumping. From the osmotic shifts that cause bloating to the insulin spikes that lead to reactive hypoglycaemia, this is the manual for your new digestive system. Learn why protein is your best defence, why you need to separate drinking from eating, and how to manage the symptoms without living in fear. It’s time to understand your anatomy, not just punish it. Key Takeaways It’s Not Just a Deterrent: Dumping syndrome isn't a behavioural punishment; it is a physiological response to rapid gastric emptying where high-sugar foods flood the small intestine. Two Distinct Types: Early dumping hits within 30 minutes due to fluid shifts, while late dumping (reactive hypoglycaemia) strikes hours later caused by an insulin overreaction. The Physiology of Panic: Symptoms like palpitations and dizziness occur because your blood volume drops as fluid rushes into the intestine to dilute sugar. Protein is Paramount: Prioritising protein and healthy fats helps buffer the absorption of carbohydrates, significantly reducing the risk of a dumping episode. The Golden Rule: Separating liquids from solids by 30 minutes prevents food from being washed through the pouch too quickly, giving your body time to digest. Quotes "It’s not just an ‘oops, better not eat that’. It is genuinely distressing. It can happen accidentally... and it can make people afraid to eat at all." "The goal should be understanding your new body and making informed choices, not living in fear of your next meal." "If you eat a meal with at least five to eight grams of fibre, you will have a significantly lower dumping rate than low-fibre meals." "We need to separate our liquids from our solids... The liquid will wash the food through your pouch really quickly, and that is exactly what we are trying to avoid." 🔗 Follow & Connect with KIO Method 🌐 Website: ⁠⁠https://www.kiomethod.com⁠ ⁠📺⁠⁠ YouTube: ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@kiomethod⁠ ⁠📸⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/kiomethod⁠ ⁠🎵⁠⁠ TikTok: ⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@kiomethod⁠ ⁠📘⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/kiomethod⁠ ⁠💼⁠⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/kiomethod⁠⁠ 🔗 Follow & Connect with Sonya Black 🌐 Sonya Black CBT: ⁠https://www.sonyacbt.com/⁠⁠ 🌐 LinkedIn: ⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonya-black-506b763b/⁠ HOST BIO Mel Harris is a weight loss mentor, podcast host, and founder of KIO Method Ltd, specialising in long-term weight loss maintenance after bariatric surgery and weight loss injections.
