An upset stomach is characterized by swelling (inflammation) of the stomach lining and intestines. It is sometimes caused by a virus, although it may also be due to a parasite, or due to bacteria like salmonella or E. coli. In some cases, an upset stomach is the result of an allergic reaction to a certain type of food. It also may be caused by an irritation. Sometimes this happens from consuming too much alcohol or caffeine. Eating too many fatty foods â or too much food in general â may also cause an upset stomach.
Coffee also causes production of stomach acids which can lead to upset stomach. Stomach acids are typically produced when food is eaten, to start the digestive process. If no food is in the stomach, acids can cause irritation and upset stomach.
