When undigested waste passes too quickly through the large intestine, not enough water is absorbed resulting in Diarrhea. Likewise, when too much water is absorbed the result is constipation. We just learned this in my 8th grade Science class. : )

If food passes through the large intestine too quickly, you have diarrhea. Diarrhea can be a symptom of many diseases and conditions, such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Ulcerative Colitis, or food poisoning. If you have diarrhea for several days, you should contact your doctor.

This means the fecal matter will dry out too much and be much harder to move through the rest of the large intestine and colon.
This results in constipation.
Bloating and abdominal pain

Digestion and absorption of many carbs, especially simple carbs start in your mouth and typically end in your stomach. Some more complex carbs are digested in small intestines. Almost all fats and proteins are digested and absorbed in the small intestine. In fact, the majority of absorption and digestion happens here.
