Re: Something that seems to work for diarrhea

I went to see a holistic nurse, and she put me on probiotics - like what you find in yogurt only tons more of the good bacteria. I got it at a vitamin shop. In reading about probiotics, it's good for diarrhea and the immune system. I just started taking it a week ago, and I've not had any problems with the big D since then.
