\"Diarrhea<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are some common reasons why you might have diarrhea after eating:<\/span><\/p>\n

If your diarrhea started recently then you may have gastrointestinal infections.<\/strong><\/span>?<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

Germs such as parasites, viruses, or bacteria all can cause gastrointestinal (GI) infections. In poorer countries GI infections are often caused by unsanitary conditions in the household or in food crops. In developed countries, like the US, the main causes of GI infection are food poisoning.?<\/span><\/p>\n

E. coli, campylobacter, and salmonella can be picked up through contaminated food or drink. Protect yourself against these bad bugs through proper food storage and refrigeration. And always ensure that foods are cooked properly, so that bacterial germs don’t survive.<\/span><\/p>\n

It could be your medications.<\/strong><\/span> <\/span><\/h1>\n

Some of the most common diarrhea inducing medications include antacids containing magnesium, laxatives, digitalis, diuretics, a number of antibiotics, chemotherapy drugs, cholesterol-lowering agents, lithium, theophylline, thyroid hormone, and colchicine. Also caffeine and alcohol can have diarrhea promoting effects.<\/span><\/p>\n

You might be eating too many vegetables.<\/strong>?<\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n

Contrary to what many people believe, eating a ton of vegetables can have negative results for your digestion. This is because many vegetables are high in insoluble fibers. Eating a large amount of certain types of vegetables can cause high amounts of irritation in your digestive tract, leading to inflammation and diarrhea. The specific types of vegetables that contain the most insoluble fibers are called FODMAPS (Fermentable Oligo-, Di- and Mono-saccharides, and Polyols. )?<\/span><\/p>\n
