The sticky rice in zongzi is very viscous and difficult to digest. It is easy for people with poor digestive function to feel bloating, and some people even "stagnate" after eating it, especially the elderly and children, who are prone to diarrhea and constipation.

Many people like to eat zongzi for breakfast and dinner, which is easy to get stomach trouble.
