Diarrhea – it can be painful, debilitating, embarrassing and even dangerous. However it presents, we don’t want it. Not to worry….homeopathy has a reputation for addressing even the most stubborn cases of diarrhea. In homeopathy, we consider the symptoms key to the illness and an expression of what is going on in the body. So, instead of suppressing the illness, we find a substance in nature that includes the same symptoms the diarrhea presents. Is the diarrhea exhausting? Cramping? Is the person thirsty or hungry? How about the mental state? Is he anxious, irritable or just plain angry? Was there an incident that caused an emotional stress that preceded the diarrhea? All of these idiosyncrasies are the expression of illness that present in tandem with the diarrhea. Hence, they all need to be considered. This is what makes homeopathy so unique and also effective. It views the person, not the disease.

Diarrhoea is what brought me to homeopathy! My younger son (he was six at the time) had had chronic diarrhoea for over three months, which antibiotics, diet and kaolin-morphine couldn’t fix. In the end, the doctor threw up his hands and said “Keep him on a bland diet and come back in six months if no better”. At this point, in desperation, I went to a homeopath. The very first remedy stopped it dead, and it never came back!
is it possible to say which remedy?
Google “JoetteCalabrese diarrhea” and you’ll find other more fleshed-out articles.
Ahh…would be helpful to know what remedy that was
67 years old….. sudden onset of morning diarrhea about 1 month ago. Never had any problems before this. Seems to be getting a little worse now with afternoon episodes, frequently feeling like I need to use the bathroom even after just being there. Also feeling more crampy, drained and nervous about going out. Have played with the Keto diet, though not fully adhering to it and also intermittent fasting.
My daughter has had stomach issues for years. On and off diarrhea with mucus sometimes and constipation. A lot of bloating and burping.Seems to be getting more frequent. Is this something that requires a homeopathic visit or can we tackle on our own?
My goal always is to teach a man to fish rather than give him the fish. If you don’t feel as though you’ve gotten enough information from my blogs (although there is plenty from which to glean) consider taking my course, Good Gut Bad Gut. I cover this subject thoroughly.
I’m just in the middle of the first Gateway class. Do you need to finish the two Gateway classes before I can sign up for that? Thank you.
To what are you referring?
Can you be a newbie and still sign up for the Good Gut Bad Gut? Is it something that someone new to homeopathy can handle?
I urge those who are new to homeopathy to join one of my study groups 1st. Having said this, newbies have certainly gone straight to courses.
