If you're dealing with urgent, watery diarrhea after meals, you may have already started looking for the food responsible. But when eliminating dairy, gluten, FODMAPs, or other suspected triggers doesn't make much difference, it may be time to look beyond individual foods.

In this episode, Alyssa explores a commonly overlooked reason for persistent diarrhea and explains why the timing of symptoms, meal composition, fat intake, medical history, and digestive patterns can tell a very different story than another food elimination.

She also breaks down why some people continue struggling despite following a strict low-FODMAP diet, how fat can influence symptoms, where soluble fiber fits in, and why managing this condition doesn't have to mean living on an increasingly restrictive diet.

If you've been removing more and more foods but your diarrhea still feels unpredictable, this episode may give you a different way to look at what's happening.
