02. Why do you have diarrhea when eating prunes?

Sorbitol is a kind of indigestible functional oligosaccharide. It can form a hypertonic environment in the intestine, absorb and retain more water, and be decomposed by intestinal bacteria to produce gas, which together promote defecation. Prunes are rich in sorbitol, with an average of 2.6 grams of sorbitol per 100 gram of fresh prunes. If you take more than 5g sorbitol at a time, your body will start to react accordingly, while if you take more than 10g at a time, you will have obvious diarrhea symptoms.
