Brief Answer:
It can be viral gastrointestinal infection.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
Watery diarrhea with no other symptoms may be related to any viral gastrointestinal infection or food poisoning.
Keep yourself hydrated having more water and fluids.
Avoid having fruit juices and fruits.
You can use loperamid to help stop it and also probiotics such enterogerina or yovita to re-establish the intestinal flora.
It may last for 3-5 days.

thanks for your response. why am i seeing undigested food in my stools?
Brief Answer:
It is quite normal.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
Seeing indigested in stools is normal while having diarrhea due to rapid intestinal transit.
I don't think this is something to worry .
You can use loperamid to reduce diarrhea and also have more water and fluids to keep hydrated.
