A person's body may reject tube feeding for several reasons, including gastrointestinal intolerance, such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, which can result from the formula used or the rate of feeding. Additionally, underlying health conditions, such as gastrointestinal diseases or metabolic disorders, may impair the body's ability to digest and absorb nutrients properly. Mechanical issues, like tube displacement or blockage, can also contribute to rejection. Lastly, psychological factors or discomfort associated with tube feeding can lead to resistance.
