What is Diarrhea?
Diarrhea occurs when loose or even liquid stools are evacuated every day. By medical definition, diarrhea is the emission of feces that are softer, more voluminous and frequent than usual, which is over three times a day.
Diarrhea can negatively affect our quality of life and cause other health problems that can be tremendously unpleasant.
What are the Symptoms of Diarrhea?
Diarrhea is often accompanied by the following symptoms: frequent need to defecate, soft or liquid stools, stomach pain, dehydration and bloating.
What Causes Diarrhea?
Diarrhea occurs when one (or multiple) of our intestinal mechanisms is not operating optimally. For example, our intestines might not be absorbing the liquid in our stools or perhaps the intestinal transit has sped up, preventing the fecal matters from drying adequately. More specifically, diarrhea is caused by:
- stress or anxiety;
- certain antibiotics that affect the intestinal flora;
- coeliac disease, Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome and other chronic bowel diseases.
- irritation and inflammation caused by parasites, excessive alcohol/caffeine consumption;
- an excess of bile in the intestines;
- lactose intolerance;
- hyperthyroidism;
- food poisoning caused by salmonella in poultry or by meat contaminated by Escherichia coli bacteria;
- etc.
