Re: Does Yogurt Prevent Diarrhea?

Good morning ladies,

please use the search for older posts regarding the Tykerb bathroom dash!

The use of citrucel (walmart has a generic). It actually helps if you take regularly. I have found as well adding mashed potatoes helps as well.

Apple pectin pills works well and helps firm things up.
Probiotics, Lactaid pills also help (I am not lactose intolerant) but when the dash starts then my body thinks I am.
When all fails with anti diarrhea meds then I turn to a natural pill 2 pills at 12 hours after or before next tykerb, or any "critical meds, ie BP".
It has Charcoal, Kaolin Clay, Apple pectin.
Also remember stay hydrated, some have said treat like irritable bowel syndrome, no gum chewing, no carbonated drinks.
Take care and prayers for effective treatments

Darita
