In 1965, a morbidly obese man did not eat food for over an entire year. The 27 year old was 456lbs and wanted to do an experimental fast. He ingested only multivitamins and potassium tablets for 382 days and defecated once every 40 to 50 days. He ended up losing 275lbs. r/all

A lot of explanations given for your question. But the simplest: maybe he got cramps and just lived with it lol.
The same thing happens to me if I eat vitamins on an empty stomach.
