I believe it allows more air, therefore more gas...Honestly, I've been using a straw since day 5 and have had no problems what so ever! Try one, if you get gas pains, put it away. " I've always been a rule breaker", lol!

I started using a straw a few months ago...I love a straw. I don't think it is doing anything. I still sip. I tend to drink more gulps when I don't use a straw.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
