Loose‑motion (diarrhea) can come from many things:
- **Infections** – bacteria, viruses or parasites (e.g., food‑borne bugs, stomach flu)
- **Food irritants** – lactose intolerance, gluten sensitivity, spicy/fatty foods, artificial sweeteners (especially sorbitol)
- **Medications** – antibiotics, blood‑pressure drugs, chemotherapy, certain laxatives or antacids
- **Digestive issues** – IBS, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, rapid transit (stress, overtraining)
- **Lifestyle factors** – excess caffeine, alcohol, or sudden diet changes
Most episodes are short‑lived and resolve on their own, but you should see a doctor if it lasts more than a couple of days, is accompanied by fever, blood, or significant dehydration.
