Diarrhoea

DIARRHOEA

Diarrhoea is your body's way of 'having a good clear out'.
Something will either be irritating the bowel such as undigested food or there may actually be constipation further around the colon. Occasionally we find that there are parasites, food intolerances are very common, imbalanced gut flora, stress and alcohol can contribute. Symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhoea, slimey stools, bloating, wind, nausea, headache and depression.

Basic Essentials:
Peppermint oil (targeted release)
Probiotic bacteria is an essential supplement as this helps to clear some of the bloating and wind.
FOS
Glutamine helps to heal the gut.
Aloe Vera is another of the main supplements as this is so soothing to the intestines

Natural Practices recommend:

We have had much success in virtually eliminating the symptoms of diarrhoea for people by using a combination of approaches. We check for Food Sensitivities to identify possible offending foods. Your diet is something you can control and if there is a food you are eating each day to which you are intolerant, it will cause bloating, wind and erratic bowel habits.

Other causes of this can be a lack of the things essential to digest the food initially - enzymes, B Vitamins, Hydrochloric acid and even good bacteria in the small intestine which we test with a 'Vitamin and Mineral' Screening. We achieve excellent results with our clients by combining the Screening with Colonic Hydrotherapy to cleanse the bowel of irritating old waste and impacted material.

It is worth remembering that anti-diarrhoea tablets do not address the root cause of the problem they only mask the symptoms. If we concentrate on all aspects of the digestive tract and improve its efficacy, the symptoms can only improve.

Please telephone or email to book an appointment for a Food/ Vitamin and Mineral Screening together with Colonic Hydrotherapy treatment. If the latter does not appeal, the Practitioner will be happy to discuss how to bowel cleanse using herbs and foods during the Screening.
