Despite the look of this🫣....here are THE FACTS CAROB for diarrhea Carob tannins have an astringent effect in the gastrointestinal tract making them useful for treating diarrhea. A double-blind clinical trial found carob useful for treating diarrhea in infants. A double-blind trial published in the Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition looked at the effects of carob on infants between the ages of three months and 21 months with acute diarrhea due to a bacteria or virus. The infants were given oral rehydration fluids and randomly took either a placebo or a carob pod powder consisting of 40 percent tannins and 26.4 percent dietary fiber at a maximum of 15 grams per day for up to six days. What were the results? Normalized bowel movements and body temperature occurred more quickly in the infants who received the carob powder. They also stopped vomiting sooner. In addition, the young subjects accepted and tolerated the carob well. L-GLUTAMINE for diarrhea A study found that taking 15 grams of glutamine supplements per day for 8 weeks improved symptoms in people who had developed diarrhea-predominant IBS (IBS-D) following an intestinal infection. Another study from 2022 found that participants who took 15 grams of glutamine per day for 6 weeks had reduced frequency of abdominal pain and lower dissatisfaction with bowel habits compared with the other group.
