It would be due to multiple variables. There needs to a certain amount of bacteria in the small intestine. Some of the variables would be, the amount of bacteria initially ingested, number of bacteria that make it past the stomach, immune system of the host, time for the bacteria in the intestine to reach a concentration to cause symptoms.

Maybe how many healthy bacteria in the gut biome, too. Thanks!
Yep! How much stomach acid, how fast an individuals GI system processes food, lots of variables. Diseases that affect the GI are kinda weird IMHO. :]
