all right so let’s talk about how to

stop diarrhea now one of the big

problems when you have diarrhea is you

can become very very deficient in

electrolytes really fast and certain

nutrients that can create huge problems

for your heart and you might feel dizzy

because one of the purposes in your

colon and even the small intestine is to

absorb these electrolytes and you need

the electrolytes for your heart so if

we’re depleting them you can create a

electrical life problem and you’re going

to notice it with the rhythm of your

heart whether it’s a palpitation or an

arrhythmia so we don’t want to have

diarrhea for a very long time because

that can be dangerous so when you have

diarrhea you’re eliminating electrolytes

fluid can become dehydrated salts okay

also probiotics like microbes you’re

getting rid of those and you’re also

losing acids okay so there’s an acid

called lactic acid which you need in

your colon to help you absorb nutrients

as well as defend yourself against

certain pathogenic microbes so it has

other functions as well so basically all

these things are wiped out and so what

we want to do if you have diarrhea is we

want to make sure we put them back in

and it wouldn’t hurt also to add trace

minerals back in there too

because one of the big problems around

the world with major zinc deficiencies

in children is diarrhea having diarrhea

through food poisoning or whatever can

cause a loss of zinc but also a zinc

deficiency can also cause diarrhea back

and forth so diarrhea can come from a

virus or a bacteria or food poisoning or

antibiotics or consuming sugar alcohols

like xylitol we throat are mannitol

maltitol

it can also come from excessive bile now

bile lubricates the colon and if you

have too much of it it can create

diarrhea what happens when you remove

the gall bladder for example sometimes

one of the side effects is now you have

this huge runoff or excessive amounts of

drainage of bile from the liver and that

alone can create

riah and the other problem is when you

have diarrhea you’re not able to recycle

this bile effectively so the bile then

you start losing bile and you become

bile deficient so it can create a

problem with your ability to digest fats

absorb fat soluble vitamins things like

that gut dysfunction whether you have

Crohn’s diverticulitis irritable bowel

syndrome or celiac if there’s damage in

the lining that can create diarrhea or

constipation and a lot of problems with

absorption of nutrients so if you have

that I suggest you watch my video on

that I put a link down below and also

certain drugs have side effects of

giving you diarrhea metformin certain

drugs that target depression or anxiety

can cause diarrhea as well so now in the

large colon okay we have a lot of

microbes probably about 400 different

species okay and they’re all working

together and they eat your fiber that

you feed it okay through vegetables

other fibers and what they do is they

ferment it and they turn it into these

certain assets that are beneficial for

you called small chain fatty acids and

those assets can feed the colon cells

they can also give your body energy and

they can also help things like insulin

resistance and help your immunity now

when the microbes ferment the fiber

there’s a certain bulk that’s formed and

that’s part of the stool so we have the

microbes and the fiber both of these are

essential in preventing diarrhea so one

thing you really want to do is you want

to put back in the probiotic the

microbes okay get a really good

probiotic I’ll put a link down below of

one I recommend that you can take that

survives the stomach that can go down

there and start building up this natural

what is called flora from the bacteria

kefir is something you can also consume

make sure it’s plain goat’s kefir is

much better because it’s lower in carbs

but this is a really good thing to to

take which actually has

probiotics it’s much better than yogurt

has a lot more friendly bacteria than

yogurt one thing that I also recommend

is kombucha tea kombucha tea has some

lactic acid in there and it can replace

what’s lost and make you feel a lot

better really quick now as far as what

fiber to do once you had diarrhea here’s

some recommendations pickles why because

pickles had already had help in their

fermentation process and those are much

easier to break down because you’re also

getting some friendly bacteria and

you’re getting certain acids with that

and fiber all at once so if you consume

pickled or fermented vegetables you’re

going to be one step ahead of the game

because it not only has the fiber in an

digestible form the it has acids with

that like pickle juice has certain acids

that are really friendly to the year :

and you also have friendly microbes as

well

sauerkraut really really beneficial

because it has the prebiotic the fiber

and the probiotic as once kimchi awesome

berries especially blackberries seem to

work really really good

giving your your microbes a chance to

take that fiber and slow this process

down I also in another video that I will

put down you can combine blackberries

with kefir blend it up and drink that it

just seems to work really nice carob is

a really good remedy get some carob

powder and take that that seems to work

very well alright so there you have it

that’s what you need to do for diarrhea

and I have another video a complete

video on the digestive system to really

understand the whole mechanism I think

you should watch it if you have

digestive issues I put it right on the

screen right here
