So after googling, the normal food you eat is supposed to take 2-5 days to go through digesting all the way to defecation.
I know eating spicy noodles will give me diarrhea but I still eat maybe once a couple months because I love them so much.
It takes only 5-6 hours before I get abdominal pains and have to relieve it at toilet.
So how does this spicy noodles skip everything in my system and kinda pushes in front of the queue to leave the body, it just doesnt make sense?
Edit: thanks for all the answers guys. I didn’t know the body could do that. It really is amazing. And now I feel kinda stupid for not figuring this out for so long.
So now I guess eating spicy noodles doesn’t only give me an unpleasant trip to the toilet but it also gets rid of all the nutrients my body was absorbing from my previous meals.

Fascinating. Does this ’emergency flush’ also explain why long-term diarrhea is so debilitating? Your body is losing loads of water, but also not getting enough nutrition from your food since it’s just being lubed up and shot out the backdoor too fast?
