Having run the experiment:
Morning hot coffee > go poop
Morning cold coffee > no urge to poop
Morning hot tea > go poop
Morning Coco Cola > no urge to poop
Morning hot water > go poop
Morning cold water > no urge to poop
I realize this is not a statistcallly relevant study, but I suspect hot liquid is the culprit to investigate.
- touisteur 3y agoI really thought I'd read something about 'when it's hot you're sipping more than gulping, so you're swallowing more often and swallowing starts some muscle mechanics chain that helps your intestines push food out'. Similar to feeling you need to go when you've started eating. Reading the article and all the comments about HN's bowel movements on a variety of stimulants, I guess I misunderstood or it was disproved...
- reddit_clone 3y agoBack when I smoked, a morning cigarette is a surefire way to make you want to 'go'. Not sure what that means here..
- crossroadsguy 3y agoThen it’s hot liquid or gas inside the system. Someone got to experiment with hot solids and report now.
- Fezzik 3y agoCounterpoint of 1 - for me, a morning Red Bull has the same deuce-inducing result as coffee. Both have higher amounts of caffeine than a Coke.

- herbst 3y agoI drink cold coffee whenever possible and don't notice a difference there. Morning coffee = poop Any coffee after = no poop
