Coffee affects me strongly. What can I say. I get a cleanse every morning for 3 bucks. Cleansing your digestive tract is actually really good for you. People pay big bucks for cleanses.
> 100% of the time a doctor can help you in some way
Nothing that starts with the claim "100%" is ever true, you can be 100% certain of that.
Seriously though, you speak as if your digestive system has never betrayed you, and therefore you're unfamiliar with these matters.
Trust me: there are some things your doctor cannot help you with, at least, not to the point you can walk in a city without public restrooms. Some things are not even medical conditions -- and IBS is "idiopathic" in many cases, meaning doctors don't have a clue -- and some conditions that you would consider anomalous actually fall within the normal human spectrum.
You'll feel the urge to contradict me: don't. You probably don't know about this, but both me and the other commenter you're arguing with do. Realize that your experience is not everybody else's.
What does any of this have to do with what I said? Regardless of how much a doctor can help you or not, if you’re shitting uncontrollably in the streets, you need to seek medical attention to determine if they can do anything about it.
If actual an scientific white paper from PubMed with research and data does not convince you that coffee has a strong laxative effect on around 30% of people, then there's not much else to say.
There's still people who believe the world is flat despite all evidence to the contrary.
It's very difficult to have a discussion with someone who prefers their own opinions over science.
Your opinions have been voted down so many times this thread is filled with your dead comments and not a single person has vouched for you other than me. I can no longer vouch for you.
Also youre flame baiting which is a clear violation of HN policy. @dang
You probably need to take a class on improving your poor reasoning skills and as another poster said: seek mental health care.
