Loose Motion and Homeopathy

This is a myth which has been in circulation for a very long time that pepper aggravates your condition if you are suffering from loose motion. Research has shown that pepper actually has a tendency to slow down your bowel movements. While it does not mean that you can have pepper as a remedy to treat your loose motion, it is true that it does not worsen your condition either. Natrum Sulph and Camphora are some of the effective homeopathic medicines that can treat this condition.

Before your monthly cycle starts, the cells which form the lining of your uterus produce more of the hormone-like compounds known as prostaglandins. These compounds can stimulate the smooth muscles in your uterus to contract. Since your bowels are also lined with these smooth muscles, excess release of prostaglandins can stimulate the intestine to contract and expel the contents. This process leads to loose motions during the menstrual cycle. Homeopathic medicines like Camphora and Cuprum Met may help to deal with loose motions that are accompanied by cramps in the stomach.

The BRAT diet consists of Banana, Rice, Applesauce and Toast that is recommended for children suffering from loose motion. It is believed that the low fibre, starchy and bland foods that were included in this diet made the stool firmer. Bananas, for example, have high vitamin and potassium content which replace the lost nutrients. There is a range of homeopathic medicines like Arsenic Album, Chamomilla, Aconite and Aloe that can help in curing loose motion.

Chamomile tea is known to have anti-inflammatory as well as nerve calming properties. It will calm your nerves and help you to get rid of your stress, which will cure your loose motion. If you are suffering from any inflammation in the intestine, this tea will cure it and also get rid of the stomach pain and cramps. Sulphur, Camphora and Podophyllum are highly effective homeopathic medicines that are used for treating loose motions.
