Is it true that carbonated sodas really bad for gastric bypass patients?

Can be : Sugar is really bad for any bypass pt. This can lead to nausea, vomiting, cramping, pain, diarrhea etc. Carbonation can certainly make some of these worse not to mention gaining weight.

Soda: Carbonated soda is bad for everyone. Regular soda has way too much sugar. Diet soda has sugar substitutes that are bad for you. So soda isn't good for anyone. For bypass patients, the co2 gas can build up in the gastric remnant and you can't burp that out. This can cause discomfort, but will eventually get absorbed. I tell my patients not to drink soda anymore.
