QUESTION<\/strong><\/span>:<\/p>\n

Hi Lorene, I took part in your annual herbal course last year – I attended with my good friend P.H. – it was a lot of fun and we learned so much from you!! \u00a0I think I remember you talking about something natural, I’m pretty sure it was an herb, that works really well for diarrhea, perhaps it was a Nature’s Sunshine product, but I can’t recall what it was. As my son is preparing for a trip to Cuba next week, taking with him herbs for digestion and parasites, I was hoping you might be able to help me come up with something he could take with him, just in case. I truly appreciate any help at all you can give me, Lorene!!<\/p>\n

Warm regards, Lila<\/div>\n

ANSWER<\/strong><\/span><\/strong>:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Three natural products we always take when traveling are Slippery Elm<\/a>, Psyllium Hulls Combination<\/a> and Activated Charcoal.<\/a> The Slippery Elm and Psyllium Hulls Combination will work for both diarrhea and constipation, depending on how much water you take them with. They are healing and soothing to the intestinal tract, and help absorb excess liquid.<\/div>\n
The Activated Charcoal, which is only available in the US and Mexico, is highly absorbent, so has been used for ages to help with chemical poisoning (as in drug overdoses), severe diarrhea, food poisoning and for severe gas, cramping or\u00a0 bloating.<\/div>\n
Both Slippery Elm and Charcoal may also be used topically as a poultice to help pull the meanness out of insect and spider bites.<\/div>\n
