"The first week I started the regime the change was amazing. My energy returned, my skin glowed, the aches and pains and heat (inflammation) in my joints went away (almost all), the gastric reflux stopped. People commented on the change in me. I was amazed at how different and positive I felt. So thank you so much." Susie, Plymouth

"I can't speak highly enough of that man, he changed my life". Doreen, Worcester 

Diarrhoea 

Soft and loose stools may be the bane of our lives when we are on holiday, but diarrhoea can be regarded a life saviour in certain circumstances when the body is attempting to dispel some serious foreign toxin or organism as quickly as possible.

When faced with the threat of an infection, a toxin or poison or even an allergy, the gut retains the water and fluid that are normally absorbed, in order to dilute the poisons and to help ease the passage through the gut in the form of diarrhoea.
Over time, if it carries on unabated, diarrhoea may lead to dehydration with far more serious consequences. This loss of fluid must be continuously compensated for while steps are being taken to treat the cause and restore function.
Also, long term loss of fluid is also responsible for loss of essential minerals which must be replenished.

Perhaps the best symptomatic treatment of diarrhoea, especially in children, is rice water. After rice is boiled, the water is drained, cooled and then sipped slowly for effective relief.       

Possible causes of diarrhoea must be divided into:

Food allergy/intolerance especially to dairy and grains (wheat in particular)

Reaction to toxins such as chemicals (pesticides, herbicides, food additives etc), and heavy metals (mercury, lead, arsenic, cadmium etc)

Medicinal drugs such as the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or NSAIDs, antibiotics, steroids etc

All of which interfere with enzyme systems creating an imbalance in the all-important ratio of good bacterial flora, probiotics, to the not-so-good commensal organisms in the gut.

The best natural treatment is to identify and eliminate the responsible foods, pathogens (bacteria, viruses, fungus/Candida, and parasites) and the toxins, to replenish the probiotics and prebiotics - fibre, both soluble and insoluble from grains, fruits and vegetables - which feed them, and to support healing and repair with the required amino acids, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids of omega 3 and 6.  .       

An Integral Health DNA Hair Test not only can identify the cause/causes of an imbalance in the body and the potential for signs and symptoms of disease; we are also able to provide the best nutrient and lifestyle recommendations specifically tailored for each unique individual, helping to ensure they are able to achieve optimum health - naturally.
