A small 1990 study found that 29% of people reported a desire to defecate within 30 minutes of drinking coffee and felt a slight irritation at the end of the colon (that is, chrysanthemums) after drinking coffee, which may be caused by an increase in caffeine levels in the blood, which directly stimulated the nerve plexus at the end of the colon.

2. Coffee can also stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis and make your breakfast digest faster.

"basically, coffee stimulates the movement of the stomach and intestines and promotes bile excretion, which itself pushes the food residue in the intestines forward, because bile awakens the intestines when bile is secreted into the intestines." the intestines know there's food to digest, "Alden said. "Coffee also helps to release gastrin, a hormone that promotes the secretion of stomach acid."

3. But if you have to poop as soon as you get up every morning, it may have nothing to do with coffee.

It may just be that your gastrointestinal tract, which is inactive all night, is "awakened". When food or drink enters the empty stomach, it causes the whole gastrointestinal tract to move, which is called gastrocolonic reflex.

4. This reflex is more obvious in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.

Whether it's regular coffee, decaffeinated coffee, or even just a cup of cold boiled water-they all have the same effect on patients with irritable bowel syndrome.

5. If you are in the habit of adding cream or vegetable fat to your coffee, and you happen to be lactose intolerant, you can't blame it all for diarrhea after drinking coffee.

Lactase deficiency is a widespread worldwide problem, the incidence is high in the far East, most of the population has no symptoms, but diarrhea and other symptoms often occur in newborns and infants with milk as the main diet.
