A member asked:
I sometimes get diarrhea and nausea from coffee on an empty stomach. does it make sense that it wouldn't happen every time only sometimes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Coffee can be a cathartic so it can cause these symptoms. There is something called the gastro-colic reflex and coffee can often stimulate it resulting in diarrhea and possibly nausea. You might want to stop coffee for awhile to see if it goes away and if does not then consult a doctor.
