Does coffee act as a laxative for anyone else?

Question

When I’m at home I drink coffee in the mornings and almost instantly I have to run to bathroom. When I’m out I refuse to drink coffee because I know half way through that cup I’m gonna have to find a bathroom. I hate using public bathrooms or any bathroom that’s not mine to go number 2 lol, I will avoid it at all cost. 
When I’m at work and so tired I really want coffee to wake me up but refuses so I don’t have to use the bathroom. Does coffee do this to anyone else?

Answer

It is a natural laxative 👍🏻

Answer

Yes me too! I google why ages ago and it’s because Caffeine is a gastrointestinal stimulant which means that it speeds up peristalsis (muscle contractions that move food through the digestive tract), Therefore it speeds up transit through the bowel, resulting in symptoms such as diarrhoea and stomach cramping."

Answer

I totally wish that it did that for me. I go every 3-4 days. But if stop drinking coffee then I won’t even go that often. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

Oh, sure. I don’t like coffee myself, but my dad’ll make coffee in the morning and go sit on the toilet while drinking it.

Answer

Not really. At least not for me. It just helps me relax. If I drink to much good luck waking me up😂. But it can have that affect on some people. Try drinking tea with caffeine.

Answer

Nope. I drink 6 cups a day and it doesn’t bother my pooping.

Answer

Yes. Is it that bad. Cant u just carry some poopouri spray. Can matcha powder or green tea wake u up?

Answer

Yes

Answer

For me, no, not generally anyway. However, sometimes I have noticed that I’ll get cramps & have to go to the bathroom if I eat certain foods either at the same time or shortly after drinking coffee… for instance, there’s been a few times I’ve eaten something with peanut butter while having coffee & it gives me cramps & makes me go.
