Disorders in the work of the gastrointestinal tract are accompanied by a complex of various painful symptoms. Consider the popular alternative remedies for vomiting and diarrhea, allowing you to restore health for a short period of time.

Juices with diarrhea

In case of an intestinal disorder, doctors do not recommend the use of juices, especially freshly squeezed. This is due to the high content of fruit acids in the drink, which increases the irritation of the gastrointestinal mucosa. But there are also useful juices for diarrhea.

Tannins, which are part of the peel, have a binding effect and normalize the stool. To prepare the juice, you should grind a couple of ripened pomegranate fruits. Obtain the resulting liquid through gauze. Drink used in small portions throughout the day.
  2. Juice of wild rose - 200 g of fresh fruits of the plant, pour 2 liters of steep boiling water. Put a heat-resistant container with a drink in a well-heated oven for the night. Strain and take ¼ cup every 2 hours during the day. From the resulting juice can make microclysters, if diarrhea occurs with severe pain.
  3. Blueberry juice - has anti-inflammatory, choleretic, astringent and antibacterial properties. Take 500 g of berries and chop them. Strain through a sieve and add to the juice 300 ml of boiled water at room temperature. Stir well and take ½ cup 3-4 times a day.
