I have diarrhea everyday, why??

Question

As far as I know I am not allergic to anything and I am pretty sure it isn't strees.....I just don't get it!!! Why??

Answer 1

Lay Off The Bosco!!!

Answer 2

It could be a few things: the only thing im sure that causes diarrhea is too much fruit+veg, not everyone needs 5 a day, only enough to suit you. It probably isn't that though and i recommend you see your doctor about it. Hope this helps.

Merry Christmas!

Answer 3

Im sure this was written already-but yes you should visit a doctor. Wet stools are a sign that water is leaving your body at a rapid rate. Are you keeping yourself hydrated? Maybe your eating alot of veggies & fruits-and your body is adjusting.

I hope this was a serious question and not a joke. LOL

Answer 4

AIDS or too much Taco Bell. If it isn't stress, it may be one of these two. Research side effects of AIDS, and try getting some bovine colostrum capsules in your system, to clear out any bad bacteria hanging out in your intestinal tract. Immodium AD helps a LOT!

You might try yogurt too, with some beneficial bacterial cultures, like activa.

Good luck, as that must be unpleasant to live with.

Answer 5

You need to see your doctor as this is NOT normal. You may be lactose intolerant or have allergies or have celiac sprue or a gut infection. Get off the computer and call for a doc appointment right now.

Answer 6

Please read the below and most likely seek some professional medical help on this one! Good luck to you!


Bacteria in food or protozoa in water are often the cause, but other causes are viruses, parasites in food and other sources. Diarrhea caused by intestinal parasites is the third leading cause of illness. If you have a number of the following symptoms: gas, diarrhea, chronic constipation, bloating, fatigue, skin rashes, nail biting, mood swings, insomnia, dry skin, brittle hair, hair loss, weight gain, bad breath, and muscle cramping, you should be tested for parasites.

� Gastroenteritis, caused by a virus that has entered the digestive tract or contaminated food or water, causes inflammation, cramping, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Severe cases can lead to dehydration, so be sure to drink fluids and balance your electrolytes (take Pedialyte for young children and the elderly, and sports drinks for everybody else.)

� Eating an excessive amount of fatty foods or fruit

� Food poisoning

� Extreme fatigue

� Stress or anxiety. What effects the mind ends up effecting the sympathetic stomach.

� Antibiotics and some prescription medications affect the bowels by killing the good bacteria along with the harmful bacteria. Take acidophilus or live culture yogurt while you are taking medication to help rebuild your intestinal flora. A probiotic remedy will be helpful.

� Still other causes are excessive consumption of alcohol, caffeinated drinks, coffee, and large quantities of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and magnesium. A good way to counteract diarrhea if you are taking large amounts of magnesium, is to supplement with acidophilus lactobacillus.

� Nutritional deficiencies.

� Consumption of sorbitol and mannitol, the sugar substitutes. And now to this list we are adding Splenda.

� The low-carb craze is very popular with those wanting to lose weight, but it has created other health problems: bloating, gas and diarrhea. Many low-carb foods are sweetened with lacitol or sorbitol, which are sugar alcohols, and, when, eaten in large quantities, can cause digestive disturbances.

� A study done at the University of Iowa medical found that 30 percent of patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms had fructose (a form of sugar) on their breath, and were experiencing stomach pain, gas, or diarrhea. Once fructose consumption was curbed, the symptoms were significantly reduced. Fructose is found in many things, but especially as a sweetener for sodas. Fructose intolerance is rapidly rising due to the tremendous increase in soda consumption.

� Over-use of laxatives (excess magnesium in some antacids), and antacids containing magnesium hydroxide. Along these same lines is the magnesium in calcium/magnesium supplements that many women take for prevention of osteoporosis.

� Long term use or excessive amounts of aspirin, ibuprofen or acetaminophen may also be a cause of diarrhea because they can have a dramatic affect on the digestive tract.

� Still other causes are putrefaction and excessive fermentation of food in the bowels.

� Improper chewing of food so that it doesn't get enough enzymes from saliva in the mouth needed for good digestion.

� For some people eating certain foods, such as apples, can cause diarrhea.

� Pesticide residue on fruits and vegetables is a cause that is often overlooked.

� Dishwashing detergent residue can be extremely irritating to the intestinal tract. Babies are especially susceptible to this problem because of the amount of residue compared to their body weight. Also, their intestinal tracts have not fully developed the digestive process. Be sure to thoroughly rinse all utensils and dishes, especially if you hand-wash them.

Answer 7

You aren't eating enough carbohydrates. If you eat fruits and veggies all the time you are going to have diarrhea. Sounds like you need to visit the doctor.

Answer 8

I had diahrrea everyday for two years and couldn't stop it for anything. One day, I get really sick. Turns out the diahrrea was a preclude to the secondary progressive multiple sclerosis I was diagnosed with.

Answer 9

most common culprit is aspartame or nutrasweet, stop drinking diet drinks of any kind. If that doesn't clear it up, time to see a doctor for a full work up.

Answer 10

You are probably eating a poor diet... high in processed foods, dairy, sodas and meat.... try to eat more vegetables and foods high in fiber...and drink more water (dehydration causes that problem as well..)
