Rice in stool?

The last 2 nights I have eaten white rice with chicken. Both times, midway through eating the meal I urgently needed the toilet. Obviously the food can't pass through me that quickly, but it seems to make me urgently go, aswell as slight abdominal pains. But then today, the blood and mucus was there (like always at moment), aswell as undigested white rice in the broken up soft stool.

Needless to say, I'm taking rice off the menu now. But what could Be causing this? I've started a gluten free diet 2 or 3 days ago to see if any improvements in my colitis at all. But rice has no gluten in?

Thanks if any one has any ideas

Have you tried taking enzymes when you eat to break the food down?

Quality enzymes that is. Beano is the generic brand and I never noticed a difference until a friend loaned me some enzymes called "terrazymes".

I had a similar problem till i started using enzymes and probiitics. It makes a huge difference in the beginning till your tummy gets strong enough.

Thanks. What probiotics would you recommend?

I would leave rice on the menu

eating caused a fast transit, which causes partial digestion. rice, especially if cooled or reheated is a helpful resistant starch.

probiotics is a good idea, and sparing use of something to slow transit time.

Ah okay, any idea on how to slow transit time? And Is it normal that eating causes fast transit? It mainly happens when I eat a big meal.
