Can eating bacon 2To3 times per day cause diarrhea?
Yes, eating bacon 2 to 3 times per day can potentially cause diarrhea, especially if consumed in large quantities or if the individual has a sensitivity to fatty foods. Bacon is high in fat and salt, which can upset the digestive system for some people. Additionally, processed meats like bacon may contribute to gastrointestinal issues in those who are sensitive to additives or preservatives. Moderation is key to maintaining digestive health.
Will soy milk be ok to have if you have diarrhea?
Soy milk can be a good option for some individuals with diarrhea, as it is lactose-free and may be easier to digest than cow's milk. However, some people may experience gastrointestinal discomfort or increased symptoms due to the presence of certain compounds in soy. It's best to monitor your body’s response and consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist. Staying hydrated and opting for bland foods is generally advisable during episodes of diarrhea.
How do you remove diarrhea stain from carpet?
When i searched for this i found: "try shaving cream!!!!! hope it works on your carpet!!!!!"
Im not sure on the correctness of this answer but it seemed a little unlikely to be of any use to me.
SHAVING CREAM WORKS SO SHUT CHO MOUTH!!!!
I searched several other places, and found several answers ranging from carpet shampooer to water and white distilled vineger.
The carpet shampooer option seems pretty self explanitory, Just use a carpet shampooer.
The water and white distilled vineger option went as follows:
You will need:
- Latex gloves
- Plastic garbage bag
- Paper towels
- Water
- White distilled vinegar
- Baking Soda
- Vacuum cleaner
Prepare yourself according to universal health precautions before cleaning bodily fluids. Place an open plastic bag directly beside the mess, and wear latex gloves.- Step 2
Gather appropriate cleaning supplies, and prepare a mixture of equal parts water and white distilled vinegar. Having your supplies handy reduces time spent cleaning and the risk of spreading germs throughout your home. - Step 3
Scoop up excess waste with paper towels, and avoid putting any pressure on the carpet while doing so. Place soiled paper towels into the plastic garbage bag as you work. - Step 4
Pour the vinegar and water mixture onto the soiled area. You may want to test an inconspicuous area for colorfastness before use. - Step 5
Blot up the solution from the carpet with paper towels, but do not rub the stain. Continue blotting until the towels absorb all liquid. Apply heavy pressure or stand on the towels to ensure removal of liquid. - Step 6
If the stain persists, repeat the vinegar and water process. - Step 7
Seal and dispose of the plastic garbage bag. - Step 8
Sprinkle baking soda on the freshly cleaned area. Allow the baking soda to sit and absorb excess odors or liquids. - Step 9
Vacuum the area when dry.
I didn't have any of these things in the house when I was looking for the answer (well i did have shaving foam but i thought it a stupid idea), so i improvised.
Instead of the vineger i used antibacterial washing up liquid, and toilet roll for the paper towels.
The impression i got from my research was that it was very important to clean it up as soon as possible. If it dries you run a high risk of stains.
I hope this is useful for anyone with the same problem i had.
Those that are not avid meat eaters may have this problem. Especially if your digestive system is not used to Kangaroo meat.
The above answer is silly, but this happens to me too. That is how I ended up here--because I Googled this topic. I do not have a sensitive stomach, but every single time I eat at Outback, my stomach gets messed up---I'm currently on day 2 of messed up stomach. I'm never eating there again!! I like the restaurant & the food, but it just does not agree with me & I'm not sure what it is---I can eat a salad, a steak, chicken, salmon, a burger---it doesn't matter--- I get a MESSED up stomach. Is it the spices or is it some sort of oil they put on their food before grilling it? WHO HAS THIS ANSWER???
Are diarrhea and loose stool the same?
No. Diarrhea is all liquid. Loose stool is partly liquid, partly solid.
Does Indian food cause diarrhea?
Indian food can give you diarrhea if it is greasy or prepared with a lot of spices, which is a frequent complaint of restaurants that serve Indian food. If you prepare it yourself, then you can control which ingredients go into the food and you'll be less likely to get sick.
Also it helps if you don't have pre-existing gastrointestinal problems such as acid reflux or Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
Is it ok to drink alcohol when you have diarrhea?
Yes, and here's why:
"Indeed, esophageal dysmotility and delayed gastric emptying have been observed with high concentrations of alcohol in experimental studies and in chronic alcoholics. Small bowel motility and transit may be abnormal in both acute and chronic alcoholics, and colonic propulsive motility is increased after acute administration of alcohol. Any, or all, of these changes in gastrointestinal functions may contribute to diarrhea in acute binge drinkers and chronic alcoholics. Unfortunately, there is a lack of systematic studies of the pathophysiology of alcohol abuse, and an integrating concept of the diarrhea of alcoholics is still not possible".
Alcohol-related diarrhea Toshimi Chiba1 & Sidney F. Phillips1 1Division of Gastroenterology, Mayo Clinic and Mayo Foundation, Rochester, Minnesota, USA
Alcohol has a multitude of effects on the small intestine and colon that cause diarrhea.
Chronic diarrhea can be caused by chronic ethanol ingestion.[6] Consumption of alcohol affects the body's capability to absorb water - this is often a symptom that accompanies a hangover after a heavy drinking session. The alcohol itself is absorbed in the intestines and as the intestinal cells absorb it, the toxicity causes these cells to lose their ability to absorb water. This leads to an outpouring of fluid from the intestinal lining, which is in turn poorly absorbed. The diarrhea usually lasts for several hours until the alcohol is detoxified and removed from the digestive system. Symptoms range from person to person and are influenced by both the amount consumed as well as physiological differences. Alcohol-induced diarrhea is often accompanied by "the follow through" which is a feeling that the patient is going to break wind (flatulence) instead becomes an uncontrolled episode of diarrhea.

Is clear sticky fluid from tender breast a sign of early pregnancy?

Can starting the atkin's diet cause diarrhea?
Yes, as could any diet that is vastly different from one your body is used to. Our systems can be quiet delicate to change, but should adapt rather quickly. If your symptoms do not improve within two weeks, or get worse, you probably have some lactose intolerance. You may not have noticed said intolerance before, even when you ate cheese, but the increase amount of cheese and the reduction of bread yeasts in this diet can make those slightly intolerant become more intolerant. Try over-the-counter remedies for lactose intolerance.
In addition, following the diet plan as instructed (move on to the phase where you add in healthy grains and veggies) will have you eating more normally. DO NOT stay stuck in phase one just because you think you'll loose weight faster that way--it is unhealthy.
