I did quite some experimenting with this. Fruit moves fastest and green leaves. Meat, cheese, oil and fats slowest. But we often eat combinations: and the slowest component of your food determines the speed of the whole. Also: it's a one lane road and "over taking" is not possible. So, eating a fast moving meal after a slow moving meal results in the fast mover getting stuck behind the slow mover. Hence I start my da…
Interesting. A great opportunity to add "YMMV"

What do you mean, the human stomach is absolutely not a "one line road", your comments lacks the basic biological understanding. What you're describing is a good generic diet and maybe that's why it feels good but please learn a bit more about the stuff you are expetimenting on.
I've used food coloring and indigestibles (like corn kernels) to do experiments on whether meals can "overtake" or "merge" or "join" with other meals into poops.
The study. It basically says that this is something one perhaps should consider in clinical settings and that the speed of fecal matter might be a worthwhile direction for future inquiry.
"Altogether, a better understanding of the complex, bidirectional interactions between the gut microbiota and transit time is required to better understand gut microbiome variations in health and disease."
It does not say 'this is a sign of health and that is not'.

There have been alternative (often mad) health proponents who have insisted upon only eating fruit in the morning for years - similar(ish) reasons. I think there is probably something to it.
