Technical Information
Our natural herbal supplement is a carefully formulated remedy to alleviate diarrhoea, soothe upset stomachs, and combat infections. Crafted to promote digestive health, it helps restore normal bowel function, easing discomfort effectively.
This supplement harnesses the synergistic benefits of botanical ingredients renowned for their anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and digestive support properties. It creates a balanced environment in the digestive tract, facilitating the body’s natural healing processes and relieving symptoms associated with diarrhoea.
Diarrhoea is a common digestive condition characterized by loose or watery stools, often accompanied by increased frequency of bowel movements. It occurs when the digestive system is unable to properly absorb water from the stool, leading to an excess of fluid in the intestines. Diarrhoea can be caused by various factors, including infections, dietary issues, medications, and underlying medical conditions.
The digestive process involves the breakdown of food in the stomach and small intestine, with the absorption of nutrients and water. In normal circumstances, the large intestine absorbs excess water from the stool, resulting in the formation of well-formed feces. However, in the case of diarrhoea, this absorption process is disrupted.
Several mechanisms can lead to diarrhoea:
- Infections: Viruses, bacteria, or parasites can cause irritation and inflammation in the digestive tract, leading to increased fluid secretion and reduced absorption.
- Inflammatory Conditions: Chronic conditions like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or Crohn’s disease involve inflammation of the intestinal lining, disrupting normal absorption processes.
- Malabsorption: Certain conditions, such as lactose intolerance or celiac disease, can interfere with nutrient absorption, contributing to diarrhoea.
- Toxins and Medications: Ingesting certain toxins or medications can irritate the digestive tract, resulting in diarrhoea as a defensive response.
- Nervous System Influence: Stress, anxiety, or certain neurological conditions can affect the functioning of the intestines, leading to diarrhoea.
When diarrhoea occurs, the transit time of food through the digestive system is accelerated, limiting the absorption of water and nutrients. This results in the passage of loose or liquid stools. The body may also increase fluid secretion into the intestines to flush out harmful agents, contributing to the watery consistency of diarrhoea.
It’s important to address the underlying cause of diarrhoea, as chronic or severe cases can lead to dehydration and nutrient deficiencies. Hydration, dietary adjustments, and, in some cases, medical intervention are commonly employed to manage and resolve diarrhoea.
Diarrhoea can be a symptom of various diseases and disorders, ranging from mild and temporary conditions to more severe and chronic illnesses. Some common causes of diarrhoea include:
- Gastroenteritis: Inflammation of the stomach and intestines, often caused by viral or bacterial infections. Commonly known as the stomach flu.
- Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD):
- Crohn’s Disease: Chronic inflammation of the digestive tract.
- Ulcerative Colitis: Inflammation and ulcers in the colon and rectum.
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): A functional gastrointestinal disorder characterized by abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits, including diarrhoea.
- Celiac Disease: An autoimmune disorder where ingestion of gluten damages the small intestine, leading to malabsorption and diarrhoea.
- Lactose Intolerance: Inability to digest lactose, a sugar found in milk and dairy products, leading to diarrhoea after consuming such products.
- Food Poisoning: Ingestion of contaminated food or water, often caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites.
- Medication Side Effects: Some medications, especially antibiotics, can disrupt the balance of gut bacteria and cause diarrhoea.
- Hyperthyroidism: Overactive thyroid gland can lead to increased bowel movements and diarrhoea.
- Malabsorption Syndromes:
- Short Bowel Syndrome: Insufficient absorption of nutrients due to a shortened small intestine.
- Pancreatic Insufficiency: Inadequate production of digestive enzymes by the pancreas.
- Colorectal Cancer: Advanced stages of colon or rectal cancer may present with persistent diarrhoea.
- Gastrointestinal Surgery: Certain procedures may lead to changes in bowel habits and diarrhoea.
- Nervous System Disorders: Conditions affecting the nervous system, such as autonomic neuropathy, can impact bowel function.
It’s essential to consult with a healthcare professional if experiencing persistent or severe diarrhoea, as it may indicate an underlying health issue that requires proper diagnosis and management.

Primary Ingredients
Alcohol (Tincture)
Agrimony: Enriched with tannins, Agrimony’s astringent properties help tone and contract intestinal tissues, providing relief from diarrhoea by reducing excessive fluid secretion.
Alfalfa: The active constituents, including saponins and flavonoids, contribute to Alfalfa’s anti-diarrheal effects by modulating intestinal permeability and inflammation.
Aloe: Aloin, a compound found in Aloe, promotes healing of the digestive lining, addressing diarrhoea caused by inflammation and microbial imbalance.
Astragalus: With polysaccharides and flavonoids, Astragalus may support gastrointestinal health, potentially alleviating gastritis-related diarrhoea.
Calendula: Calendula’s flavonoids and triterpenoids offer anti-inflammatory and anti-diarrheal effects, helping regulate intestinal function.
Cloves: Eugenol, a major component in Cloves, exhibits anti-parasitic and anti-diarrheal properties, providing relief from infectious causes.
Ginger: The active compound gingerol in Ginger demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects, reducing gastrointestinal irritation and serotonin-induced diarrhoea.
Marshmallow Root: Rich in mucilage, Marshmallow Root forms a protective layer on the digestive tract, reducing irritation and easing diarrhoea.
Peppermint: Menthol in Peppermint acts as an anti-spasmodic, alleviating cramps and pain associated with diarrhoea while reducing inflammation.
Cinnamon: Cinnamaldehyde, a key component in Cinnamon, contributes to its anti-flatulent and anti-diarrheal effects by modulating gut function.
Fennel: Anethole, the active compound in Fennel, imparts soothing properties, addressing upset stomach, flatulence, and diarrhoea.
Green Tea: Catechins in Green Tea exhibit antimicrobial effects, assisting in managing diarrhoea caused by bacterial infections like Helicobacter pylori.
L-Glutamine: Crucial for mucosal repair, L-Glutamine aids in restoring the integrity of the digestive tract, particularly beneficial for chronic diarrhoea.
Potassium: Essential for maintaining cellular integrity, potassium helps counteract weakness caused by electrolyte loss during diarrhoea.
Slippery Elm: The mucilage content in Slippery Elm forms a protective coating on the gastrointestinal lining, easing symptoms of diarrhoea and associated discomfort.
Turmeric: Curcumin in Turmeric demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects, alleviating diarrhoea by modulating immune responses and reducing gut inflammation.
Vitamin A: Vital for immune function, Vitamin A plays a role in reducing child mortality and the incidence of diarrhoea by supporting overall gut health.
Vitamin B3: Niacin, the active form of Vitamin B3, contributes to the prevention of diarrhoea, particularly in malnourished individuals, by supporting metabolic processes.
Walnut Leaves: High tannin content in Walnut Leaves imparts astringent properties, offering relief from diarrhoea by tightening and toning intestinal tissues.
Wormwood: Active compounds like artemisinin in Wormwood may alleviate symptoms of Crohn’s disease, including diarrhoea, through anti-inflammatory effects.
Zinc: Essential for maintaining gut barrier function, zinc supports recovery from acute diarrhoea by promoting mucosal integrity and reducing fluid loss.
