Why does the stomach hurt after drinking passion fruit juice?

Patient's question:

It is said that drinking passion fruit juice mixed with sugar and hot water has health benefits. However, when I first drank it, I found it very sweet, delicious, and appetizing. But later, when I occasionally drank it in the same way—adding sugar to hot water—I started experiencing stomach pain and discomfort. Why is this?

Doctor's answer:

The juice of passion fruit is acidic, and it can harm your stomach. Both sour and spicy foods can harm your stomach. If you really want to eat it, you can add some stomach medicine to take with it. In addition, during the treatment for stomach pain, besides immediate medical care, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference in the complete recovery from stomach pain.
