The liquid parts, minerals and sugars can be largely absorbed before you get down to the bacterial area of the intestine and so the more indigestible the food is, the more risky it is for supporting an overgrowth of bacteria and if your digestion happens to be poor, then more foods will pass along and become bacteria food. Indigestible fibrous materials, types of starch that can't be broken down by animal enzymes or human enzymes become good food for bacteria and many of these are being promoted for intestinal health to stimulate the peristalsis and so on.
