Overripe bananas are generally safe to eat and do not directly cause diarrhea for most people. However, they contain more sugar and can have a laxative effect in some individuals, potentially leading to loose stools. Additionally, if someone has a sensitivity to certain sugars or is not accustomed to high-fiber foods, overripe bananas might upset their digestive system. Moderation is key, and it's best to listen to your body’s reactions.
