That season we used to call fall, but that we now often know as pumpkin spice latte season is nearly upon us. Soon, we’ll start seeing the theme in everything from drinks to foods to candles to soaps. It’s tough to avoid. For many of us, it’s something we look forward to every year. However, there are reasons you might want to be selective about your choice of hot beverage this year.
For many people, pumpkin spice latte comes with a lot more than just a comforting flavor. It can cause some unpleasant symptoms, too. These symptoms aren’t just a guilty feeling from having so many fats and calories from one hot beverage. Instead, it can come in the form of a stomach ache, nausea, chills, or even a race to get to the bathroom.
