4. Diarrhea
Nutrients and water are not absorbed from the food we eat immediately. It takes some time, so our food needs to remain in our digestive system long enough for that to happen. If our food was to pass through too quickly, for whatever reason, it will mean we are not able to absorb the fluids that we need.
When this happens, it is a condition commonly known as diarrhea. The patient’s stools will be very watery, and this means that water is being passed out through the body rather than being absorbed. This can lead to other complications so patients should be monitored, especially those that are particularly weak.
