DAE: Have to poop immediately after eating?

r/

I eat, I immediately poop it out (I mean with 5 minutes). Is this normal? Am I even digesting things at this point?

    You may have an issue with your gall bladder. I recommend getting that checked out by your PCP

    Nope. But right after I shower I do.

    I don’t think you’re shitting out the same food. It’s probably from a day before but your digestive system pushed it along

    It’s not what you’ve just eaten that’s coming out. It’s the stuff that’s been chilling in your intestines since you last ate. I have IBS and it happens to me sometimes too. Try keeping a journal of what you’ve eaten and when this happens to see if anything in particular might be triggering it.

    Hello science states that it cannot be from the food that is on your plate however, you can do the corn/beet test if you believe that is the case. I am allergic to progesterone if you give me progesterone in normal amounts, my heart begins to drown in itself, and my tendons and ligaments will no longer hold up my legs and I cannot walk. Before I got gutted like a fish two weeks after turning 26 of all of my girly guts taking out the progesterone from 14 to 26 would very often have to go to the toilet with what was on my plate while still eating. I also carry more than a dozen 1% diagnoses so it’s not the normal or traditional genetics or statistics to work with, but it can and does happen.

    Not always but just fyi this is extremely common and I think there is a name for it. You’re not pooping out the food you just ate. It’s usually like 16-32 hours from mouth to anus

    Gastrocolic reflex. It isn’t what you just ate, it’s what has been sitting in your large intestine/colon. It’s completely normal, but you might speak to your PCP if you’re concerned.

    It’s not the same food. So basically when you eat, your body has to make room for the food so it’s possible your body has to immediately go to „make room“

    The food in your intestines are moving along cause your stomach is digesting the food you just ate

    You could have allergy or intolerance induced dumping syndrome. It’s pretty rare if you’ve never had a gastric bypass surgery, but it’s possible. I have the same issue. On my worst days I have a gastric transit time(from eating to excreting) of 4 hours and only know this because the spinach salad I ate for breakfast I’ve pooped before lunch nearly as fresh and crisp as I ate it and hadn’t eaten spinach or any other fresh salady greens in weeks among other instances of similar happening.

    Dairy, glutin, eggs, and nightshade vegetables are common offenders. Try eliminating those from your diet for at least a month. Keep a food and poop journal and see what happens. Also, like someone else said, it could be a gallbladder issue. I’ve had mine removed and still have this issue, however. It’s probably time you go see a gastrointerologist. Good Luck!

    Well then you’re probably eating things that irritate your digestive tract. The body is wise and rushes to expel things that it doesn’t want in there.

    Sometimes I have to go just after I take the 2nd bite. When you eat your brain is sending signals to your bowls for some reason. Don’t think it’s anything you should be concerned about.

    But just to be sure: track which meals cause this. Maybe you have lactose intolerance.

    I’ve got IBS/Chrons. This happens to me often. It’s not the same food. While things can run through my tract quicker than normal, it’s impossible for it to only be 5 minutes. It would come out looking exactly the same as it went in. 5 minutes is not enough time to break it down and move it through.

    The way I think of it is I’ve got a big air pocket in my guts and eating immediately displaces it and forces out whatever’s already in my colon. I don’t know if that’s at all real or accurate, but that’s how I think of the phenomenon

    You’re not shitting out the food you just ate. It just doesn’t work that way.

    Surely you learned how your digestive system works in elementary school.

    It’s common for some people to need to go to the bathroom soon after eating a meal, but it’s not the food you just ate. It’s the food you ate at some point over the previous 10-24 hours

    The food you just ate is in your stomach undergoing the very first stages in the process of digestion.

    This happens to me occasionally. Like for 24 hours if I eat or drink something, within 15 minutes….I’m in the bathroom. Happens once every every few months.

    Coffee yes. Food no

    You’re activating your digestive system by eating and that includes your colon. I genuinely don’t think it’s the same food you just ate unless you’re constantly having diarrhea. If that’s the case you need to seek medical attention ASAP.

    I have a similar predicament. I consulted my doctor about it and he told me my colon was just working very well.

    Okay is there anyone else who sits down to enjoy their nice meal and a show and three bites in gotta go? Like it’s so frustrating I just wanted a break for a minute but gotta pause the show and let my food get cold 😡

    YES! My friends think I’m weird but it’s clockwork, every time I eat, I immediately gotta go to the can after that.
