Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Passing stools after food intake may be due to food intolerance or irritable bowel syndrome or gastrocolic reflex or malabsorption syndrome etc.

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks.

Avoid lactose contain food and gluten contain food.

Using of probiotics may can help in diarrhea and in irritable bowel problems.

Use tablet Normaxin. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor. He will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care.
