Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. It could be excessive mucus secretion from the colon.
2. This mucus secretion is appearing due to colonic irritation secondary to low fiber diet.
3. Increase hydration and also small quantity of fiber in diet through bulking agents will be helpful. Not to worry.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
