Yesterday I talked about what is arguably one of the most common
gut problems -- constipation.

But for many, being able to "go" ISN'T the problem.

The problem is going WAAAY too much...as in diarrhea.

Let's take a little closer look at this often joked-about but potentially serious condition.

It keeps you runnin'

Putting it bluntly, diarrhea is your body saying, "Get this out of me NOW!"

With diarrhea, your wastes move through your colon way too fast. Since the colon is where the excess water in your wastes is absorbed, when everything flies through at the speed of light, the colon doesn't have a chance to do its job...

And you get the classic loose, watery wastes known as diarrhea.

Oh, and a sense of urgency like nothing else on earth. Hopefully you're near a toilet.
 

Oh crap, there's more?

With diarrhea, having to sprint to a toilet on a moment's notice is not the only problem.

Because when your wastes rocket through the intestinal tract, chances are excellent that you are not properly absorbing the nutrients from your foods as they whiz on by.

This can lead to nutritional deficiencies over time and underweight. Sadly, that's why some people have resorted to abusing laxatives as a way to take off pounds -- their health be damned.

But the flip side can also be true. Lacking nutrients can also lead to feelings of constant hunger since your inner dinner bell rings when you need nutrients.

Constantly feeling hungry leads to overeating...and you know what THAT means. That scale number creeps up, Up, UP.

Plus, diarrhea is an excellent way to get irritation in your exit ramp--otherwise known as hemorrhoids.

Lastly, since your body isn't absorbing the fluids from your wastes like it should, you're at risk for dehydration. (This is especially dangerous for small children and the elderly.)
 

What it is and isn't

Now, diarrhea is not a disease in and of itself, but rather a symptom of something else.

That something else can be any number of things like:

- Crohn's disease
- Ulcerative colitis
- IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)
- Celiac disease/gluten sensitivity
- Food allergies and sensitivities
- An excess of Vitamin C or magnesium
- The sugars found in dietetic candies--sorbitol, mannitol and xylitol
- Diverticulitis/diverticulosis
- Viral or bacterial infection
- Food poisoning
- Laxative abuse
- Colon cancer
- Fructose or lactose intolerance
 

What to do to stop running to the loo

If you have acute diarrhea (diarrhea that's related to a bug, virus, something you ate, etc.), although you may feel lousy, chances are it will resolve itself within a few days. Just make sure you stay hydrated.

But chronic, long-term diarrhea is a different story.

First and foremost it's important to see a doctor to rule out anything serious.

But in the absence of a specific underlying condition, chronic diarrhea is most commonly the result of the foods you eat.

When you eat processed foods and meal combinations that are hard to digest, you put your entire GI tract into a stressed state.

Your stomach churns and repeatedly secretes acid trying to break down what you've just swallowed. This can go on for 8-10 hours or more depending on how much you chowed down!

Eventually the stomach passes the "mess" on to your small intestine as if to say, "I've had enough--you deal with it now!"

Then your small intestine tries like heck to finish the job, but it can only do so much.

By the time the mess reaches the colon, heaven help you. If your foods are not broken down properly, this can stress the colon, and in a stressed state it may not properly absorb the water it should to make your bowel movement "solid."

And you fly like a jet plane to the toilet.
 

Put an end to the explosions

To keep things running smoothly at your "bottom," you have to start at the top (what you put in your mouth).

If you want to get rid of chronic diarrhea, you MUST eat foods that nourish your body, and make sure that all of your meals are correctly combined to be easily digested.

That is exactly what you will learn to do when you follow my advice in the Great Taste No Pain system or for gluten-challenged people, Great Taste No Gluten.

When you eat meals that are easy for your system to break down, your stomach and intestines literally shout out, "Thank you!" and your digestive problems (including diarrhea) can begin to disappear FAST.

There are just a few easy-to-understand manuals that explain how and why eating this way works so well for everyone, no matter how badly you've eaten before or how long you've had diarrhea.

There's also a recipe book filled with 112 delicious delights and a credit-card sized dining out guide so you can make smart food choices no matter where you are.
 

Put the army to work, too

Your intestinal flora also helps break down your foods and encourage normal bowel movements.

Problem is, thanks to the typical diets most people have, their intestinal flora balance is completely out of whack, and they instead have an environment that favors harmful bacteria. (A perfect invitation for diarrhea or other digestive problems.)

But a potent, medical-grade probiotic supplement like Super Shield can help turn that around for you fast, and help maintain a proper flora balance each and every day.

Super Shield contains the probiotic strains Bifidobacteria Infantis, Bifidobacteria Longum, Lactobacillus Casei and Lactobacillus Rhamnosus, all of which have been shown to help counteract diarrhea and improve digestion.

Those and Super Shield's other 9 strains go to work immediately in your gut, beefing up your population of beneficial, disease-fighting bacteria, strengthening your gut wall, enhancing digestion and crowding out harmful pathogens.
 

Don't live one more moment thinking that your solutions to chronic diarrhea are medication or eating lots of bananas!

Experience the power of the right diet with Great Taste No Pain or Great Taste No Gluten plus a healthy flora balance with Super Shield.

I'm sure you'll be able to say goodbye to chronic diarrhea and hello to normal BMs very soon!

To your health,

Sherry Brescia

PS: Will has no more IBS-related diarrhea or reflux and is off all drugs!

Hi Sherry,

I must admit that I was a skeptic when I first read about your Great Taste No Pain plan to normalize my IBS symptoms.

After 3 months of persistent diarrhea, I was diagnosed by my physician as having IBS. I tried Lomotil and Imodium to correct the diarrhea to no avail.

Then I tried your plan and by the second day I noticed a marked improvement and was back to a normal bowel movement by day 4. WOW! I could hardly believe the results. Even my doctor was surprised.

In addition, for the past 15 years I have been taking a PPI (Losec) and antacids to control GERD and a hiatal hernia. I am now off these meds and experiencing little or no acid reflux.

Thank you so very much for being there for us that suffers from IBS and SIBO symptoms. Keep up your excellent work.

Cheers,

Will

As we age, our supply of digestive enzymes decreases. This is especially true for people who eat lots of processed food and hard to digest meals. Foods such as these require LOTS of enzymes to break them down and over time your body's ability to produce enough enzymes is diminished. Nothing can make you feel older than gas, bloating, heartburn and constipation from ineffective digestion and too few enzymes. Give your body the support it needs and feel great inside with Digestizol Max natural digestive enzyme supplement.  Learn more about Digestizol Max and all the ways it can help you here.
