Diarrhea is a common problem that occurs when your bowel movements ( or stools) become very loose, frequent and/ or watery. It can be either acute ( short term) or chronic, lasting more than 2-3 weeks.
Remedies to stop diarrhea at home:
1: Eat soothing foods & that are easy to digest.
2: Stay hydrated
3: Get enough rest
4: Try these supplements. Probiotics, digestive enzymes, glutamine powder, aloe vera juice, raw sprouted fiber from flax and chia seeds.
5: use essential oils
For acute diarrhea, provide the following dietary regimen:
- Give clear fluids, including glucose, electrolyte-containing beverages, and commercial rehydration preparations, orally. Clear fluids provide rapidly absorbed calories and electrolytes with minimal stimulation. After diarrhea has stopped for 24 to 48 hours, progress to a full fluid diet, then to a regular diet.
- Avoid milk, caffeine, and high-fiber foods for 1 week to avoid irritating the intestinal mucosa.
- In chronic diarrhea, encourage the patient to avoid foods and activities that may cause diarrhea. His awareness and selfregulation of contributing factors help manage chronic diarrhea
