Going to the bathroom alot at night?

Question

My father has been complaining about how he has to go to the bathroom at night.Almost like diarrhea,and could this be happening because of something he's eating?I just posted another question about if cinnamon was a laxative,because he drinks half a teaspoon of cinnamon in warm water every night,because I read on the internet that drinking it will help you fall asleep.So is it because of the cinnamon? His eating habits haven't changed at all,and this all just started like 2 days ago.He's been taking the cinnamon for weeks.So why did this happen now?

Answer 1

It is possible that your dad is having an allergic reaction to the cinnamon and that could be causing the diarrhea.  Stop the cinnamon and see if it clears up.
