Why does the colder the weather, the more diarrhea?

Cold diarrhea may be caused by gastrointestinal sensitivity or spleen and stomach weakness.

1. Some people have sensitive constitutions and stomachs. When the weather is cold, the temperature drop will stimulate sensitive intestines and stomach, leading to gastrointestinal spasm or peristalsis too fast, which will lead to insufficient digestion of food and diarrhea.

2. Some people have weak spleen and stomach. Because of the cold weather, the function of the spleen and stomach is affected, leading to dysfunction. Stomach and intestines have the function of absorbing food moisture, and dysfunction will reduce the ability to absorb water, thus causing diarrhea.

For people with gastrointestinal dysfunction, when it is cold, we must pay attention to the warmth of the stomach and increase clothing in moderation. And be careful not to eat cold and irritating food, which will lead to impaired gastrointestinal function. Probiotics can regulate gastrointestinal function and can be taken properly. It is recommended to eat more foods with warming and nourishing effects, which is good for the gastrointestinal tract.
