2. Drink more water
We have already mentioned how important it is to prevent diarrhea from leading to dehydration. And there’s no better way to do it than to increase the amount of water you drink. But you can play it even safer and do more by avoiding sugary drinks, caffeine, and alcohol. All these beverages are considered dehydrating, so stay away from them when you have diarrhea. If you are one of those people who struggle to drink large amounts of water, you can drink tea instead. Don’t say you also don’t like tea. There are many flavorsome variances you can try, so you’ll certainly find something that you like.
1. Probiotics
These are simply living organisms that provide you with necessary benefits when ingested. Although the term encompasses a wide range of microorganisms other than bacteria, you can think of probiotics as “good bacteria”. Probiotics can help you restore the bacteria balance in your gut. This tip will work if the diarrhea is being caused by the presence of some specific forms of harmful bacteria. Before buying probiotic supplements to control your bowel movements, you can try probiotic-rich foods, such as yogurt and traditional buttermilk – these foods contain high amounts of probiotics due to the manufacturing process.
