Although there are still unanswered questions when it comes to dumping, there is little doubt that it is related to blood sugar - which includes too high (hyperglycemia) and too low (hypoglycemia). That implies that if you eat "X" food when your blood sugar is high, dumping could result. But eat the same food when your blood sugar is low, and you may not experience any dumping. About 2/3 of folks who experience dumping have "early" dumping which usually occurs within 15 to 30 minutes after eating and sometimes (but not always) results in vomiting. 1/3 experience "late" dumping which usually occurs two to three hours after eating but may occur as late as twelve hours after eating. Vomiting is less common with late dumping although the overall shakiness and fatigue are still quite unpleasant. And about 50% of folks never experience dumping at all. It's a good idea to also remember that although dumping is most commonly associated with sugar, it can occur as the result of eating too many carbs or fats as well.
