Generally bread can back you up a little bit. If you drink enough water, it should be ok. Eating a loaf of bread a day can be very hard on your stomach. That is a lot of digesting for you stomach to do, and if you don't drink enough water, it makes it that much harder. Toast, not bread is used to help stop diarrhea. It is part of the BRAT diet. Bananas, rice, apple sauce, and toast.

Yes,to much fiber can cause both.

for diarrhea - imodium d works well. for constipation - flaxseed and wheatgerm.

Or, if it's white bread (without fiber) it could easily cause constipation. It probably would cause constipation, especially if you didn't eat a lot of other foods with fiber that day or drink enough water. Probably not diarrhea, but everyone's body reacts a little different to things.
