Diarrhea caused by caffeinated soft drinks or even coffee is not common but some people do get a strong urge to have a bowel movement after consuming caffeine. A common reflex, called the gastrocolic reflex, stimulates the colon to contract after a meal. It is unclear why our body has this reflex, and it is more easily noticeable in some people.
