Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of you and your husband having loose stools too often - you both have been eating a lot of fresh beets which are cooked, purple potatoes, all with olive oil and cooked in oven, can not guess the reasons.
With the short history you have provided this looks definitely to be related to something that you both are having .
I think first of all you should check you water source, get the water tested, it is possible that it is infected.
Secondly, change the cooking oil to something else - not the olive oil.
Thirdly stop oven cooking, they are meant for making foods warm.
Now it is going to be a keen observation and change over to absolutely new foods, beverages, cooking methods that are going to help you to identify the cause.

Once found out, stop the cause altogether and you may be alright.
Also get the stool and blood tests as per the clinical evaluation by your Doctor and also get a prescription for medications if required and deemed necessary by your Doctor.
I find this answer helpful
