What Causes Diarrhea to Become Severe?
One major cause is toxins. This term refers to just about any non-living agent, such as heavy metals, pesticides, pollutants and the toxic by-products of the biochemistry of bacteria. These are notoriously difficult for mainstream medicine to treat, but a natural substance known as activated charcoal can adsorb these toxins and pass them through the body without them doing further harm. Adsorption is different to absorption, in that the toxins attach to the charcoal’s large surface area, and cannot affect the body further. Failing activated charcoal, you can use burnt toast in an emergency. If you have diarrhea and believe it to be caused by something that you have eaten, you can treat it by deliberately burning toast, scraping off the black bits and drinking it mixed with water. As soon as you can get some activated charcoal, continue the treatment till you feel better. Don’t overdo it though, because charcoal can adsorb the nutrients in your intestine as well as the toxins.
