*Drink carrot and vegetable juices.
* Eat toast, papaya, cooked potatoes
* Potato soup is often used as a diarrhea remedy. Other good dietary items include applesauce, cottage cheese and other Organic Raw Certified mild cheeses, rolled oats, and brown rice. Be sure to chew everything thoroughly to get the digestive enzymes going. Also, begin rebuilding intestinal flora by introducing beneficial probiotics such as acidophilus.
*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.
*Try one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar (organic) in a glass of water with each meal and at mid-morning, mid-afternoon, and at bedtime.
* Lactobacillus acidophilus in yogurt produce bacteriocins which restore natural intestinal culture.
*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.
