Loose Tummy
I HAVE A CONSTANT LOOSE TUMMY, SOME DAYS IT WILL BE NORMAL BUT MORE THAN OFTEN IT IS LIKE WATER? WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS? STRESS? DIET?

Hi Stacey
It could be caused by a chronic infection (parasite) or irritable bowel or malabsorbtion. Rather let your doctor send away a stool sample to the lab for testing and if needed, refer you to a gastroenterologist for a full examination.
Taking probiotics three times a day and Fybogel once daily may help for the watery consistency.
