The liquid - made by cooking any type of rice in twice as much water as usual, then straining the mix to separate out the grain - is loaded with soluble fiber, which forms a gel in the digestive tract that attracts water and adds bulk to stool. This asian folk remedy works so well, it's still used in the pediatric wards of many hospitals.


To use: add a dash of sea salt and drink 8 oz every 4 hours.

Not tested personally, but useful to remember I think.

When you're squirting from both ends you're supposed to eat a BRAT diet.

Bananas, rice, apples, and toast. I think it has something to do with the starchy content.

I would believe that this remedy would work.
