* Apples,in combination with chamomile, shortens the course of unspecific diarrhea in children. Or grate an apple and let it stand at room temperature for several hours until well darkened; this will let out the pectin that is the main ingredient in most common diarrhea medications.
*pectin increases viscosity and volume of stool so that it is used against constipation and diarrhea. (pectins found in apples : 1–1.5%, [[apricot]] : 1%, cherries : 0.4%, oranges : 0.5–3.5%, carrots : 1.4%, citrus peels : 30% )
* [[Lactobacillus acidophilus Acidophilus]] in yogurt produce bacteriocins which restore natural intestinal culture.* [[Witlof]] : In Witlof are certain fibers and probiotics that ensure that your body is restored in a natural way. Probiotics such as Witlof contain bacteria that also contain your intestinal flora. They ensure that your intestines are healthier and recover faster from diarrhea. So it is better to eat a plate full of Witlof instead of a biscuit.
*Take activated charcoal or white clay to absorb toxins in the system. Actually, activated charcoal is a powerful adsorbent that attracts toxins to its surface, as opposed to absorbing them.
*Put cornmeal into a hot skillet and stir till it is completely parched (medium brown). After it cools, eat about two tablespoons (drinking as little water as you can). It is sand-like and not very pleasant tasting, but this old traditional remedy can help stop diarrhea in only 2-3 hours.
