Why do eating chips cause diarrhea?
There are special chips in which a fat substitute called Olestra or Olean is used. Olestra is an artificially produced substance which works much like fat do but which the body can not break down and use, and thus it passes through the body unchanged. A problem is that vitamines are absorbed in it and thus brought out of the body too. A positive similar effect is that some poisons, like dioxine, is also absorbed and brought out. Another side effect that some people can experience from Olestra is abdominal cramps and diarreha. Chips which contain Olestra must be marked with information about this. If the chips you have eaten do not contain Olestra, another reason must be figured out, but I can confirm that you are not alone with this problem. I also get diarrhea from chips (without Olestra).
