I used to drink coffee quite often, until I one day realized that it makes me have to poop.. If I even drink one cup I can feel my belly get all weird, then I have to go to the bathroom. I thought I was just sick before I found out it was because of coffee. So I switched to tea, and I think tea is a lot better anyways. :p
But, does this happen to anyone else when they drink coffee?

    It's because it is a stimulant:)

    I haven't had coffee in years but yes, me too. It even happened when I switched to decaffeinated so it's more the hotness of the liquid (although the caffeine may have some effect too; it certainly has an effect on peeing).

    Happens to me every morning too and it's because there is not enough food in your stomach,simple.

    No. I practically live on the stuff and only need to dump every other day.

    Half an hour, and it runs through me. With milk, without, decaf or regular. Doesn't matter how it sends me running.

    When I used to drink caffeinated, it would give me a near diarrhoea effect. Maybe, it was because I was drinking starbucks? Or perhaps, it was the caffeine itself? Anyway, a few months ago switched to decaf and the shitty feeling comes every now and then. If you really want to go, I strongly suggest that you use less cream or switch to milk.

    Yes. Maybe your coffee is too strong or maybe you don't eat enough while drinking coffee.
