Body doesn't want it: A quick bout of diarrhea, along with nausea and tummy ache, usually means the person ate something that reacted in a way with his or her body, to make the body want to rapidly expel (poop out) everything. Sometimes this is due to food poisoning (bacterial toxins in the food), rapid over-eating, certain food oils/ingredients that make bowels move, taking medications with laxative effects, etc...
