A member asked:
Can eating too much sugar cause diarrhea over several days when your body isn't used to any sugar cause diarrhea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Too many simple sugars in the diet can cause diarrhea, especially the sugars found in fruit juices. Try to limit sugar intake to natural sugars in fresh fruits and vegetables where the fiber will help to form a nice well formed stool.
