Sometimes too much starchy fiber can over burden the intestines and the illeocecal valve(the one between the end of your small intestine and beginning of your large intestine) can malfunction.
This allows backflow from the colon- including a large amount of microbes, into the small intestine creating irritation to the gut lining, which can include healing with stenosis(narrowing of the passageway). Ileocecal Valve Dysfunction can happen to vegetarians who overdo fiber in their diet, from surgery, from stress, or from low grade inflammation due to constipation.
Some signs of ileocecal valve dysfunction are:
Irregular bowel movements
Constipation alternating with diarrhea
Tenderness in the lower right abdomen
Sense of fullness after eating small amounts
Bloating
Gas
