Tell me about the digestive system

[Zhaylin]

I am very confused. Some foods do NOT agree with me at all. As soon as I eat them, I get diarrhea instantly. But I thought it takes time for food to digest.

The digestive system is very complex. It may be the combinations of food/drink that you are having. For instance coffee and pop tend to help digestion a long and may lead to such things. Spicy foods also tend to cause such movements. Therefore, spicy foods+pop/coffee can be a disaster. I can't explain it all that well as I'm not a doctor but that is my general understanding. I believe that if you try to add more bran/wheat/whole grains to your diet it will help to lower the chances it happens as well. Here is a article from wiki.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digestion
