Why Coffee Makes You Wanna Poop?

Usually it is milk that makes you wanna poop, but why for me coffee also makes me wanna poop?

Well, to answer this question you need to know what kind of coffee did you drink? If you drink like caffe latte, mocha, or cappuccino which contain milk in them then you probably wanna poop because of the milk.

In order to know whether coffee makes you wanna poop or not is to take pure coffee, americano or espresso without any added sugar or other stuff that you like to add in coffee.

So why coffee makes you wanna poop? Well its not the coffee but the caffeine that is responsible.  caffeine inhibits enzyme that regulate mucosal secretion in the small intestine. Which mean the small intestine going to have slower time absorbing the food and fluid you take and thus getting your colon full much more faster which end up you having a lesser stool or diarrhea.
