Ate a cucumber, raw zucchini, pepper, & a bit of quinoa 8hrs ago. it all just came out in a loose, sharp, bitter smelling bowel movement! how so fast!

Intestinal motility: None of this suggests a serious health problem. Intestinal passage can be as little as 1-2 hours after eating something that sufficiently stimulates bowel motility. Eight hours is well within normal for some people with some foods, including certain fruits and vegetables. Strong odor is common when motility is rapid.
