Build immune system - E.g. by regularly eating garlic and onions, plus take daily probiotics;
Anti-diarrhea and opiate pain medicines should be avoided. Aince these medications reduce intestinal motility, and stopping diarrhea could cause an already inflamed colon to retain C. Difficile toxins. Better natural options to control diarrhea, would be:
• Consume 2 ripe bananas and a glass of organic buttermilk every day
• Coconut (milk, oil or flakes). Take 1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Coconut Oil or 2 Tbsp. unsweetened, shredded coconut (from health food store), drink coconut milk, or some people have simply eaten supermarket coconut macaroons, but these contain a lot of sugar
A child's dose of bovine colostrum
Activated charcoal or bentonite clay taken orally will adsorb C. Diff toxins - it is thought that by binding the toxins produced by C. difficile, they will be removed faster from the intestine, causing less damage. However, such adsorbers should not be eaten three hours before or after taking antibiotics or other medications,because it will interfere with their effective natural digestion, and so weaken medication.
Minimize sugar intake. Unless you want to feed the little C. Difficiles !
