Diarrhea is an intestinal disorder that is usually caused by consuming food that is spoiled or contaminated by bacteria or by some other type of internal problem. It can be a symptom of some other illness or it can also be caused by emotional imbalance. Studies show that certain nervous states such as fear or tension are intense emotional evacuators. Other feelings such as anxiety and indecision also contribute.
