What happens if you eat more rock sugar on an empty stomach, and what effect does it have on your digestive system?

Patient's question:

I have esophagitis, chronic superficial gastritis with bile reflux, colon lengthening, refractory constipation, and irritable bowel syndrome. There is gas in my stomach and intestines, but I don't feel hungry. I have belching and nausea. I can't have a bowel movement, and when I take laxatives, I have diarrhea. Without them, I can't have a bowel movement. Eating fruits upsets my stomach. When I can't have a bowel movement, there is a lot of gas in my intestines, accompanied by pain, which pushes up to my chest, causing belching and nausea. After taking laxatives and having a bowel movement, the symptoms relieve. I wake up with bitter taste in my mouth in the morning.

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Hello, generally speaking, eating foods like rock sugar on an empty stomach do not have a significant impact on the gastrointestinal tract, because carbohydrates are directly absorbed into the digestive system, bypassing the digestion process.
Advice: However, for the condition you described, it is relatively complex. It is recommended that while taking Western medicine, you can also take some traditional Chinese medicine to regulate your body. You can start by taking Wu Mei Wan to see if it helps.
