Re: Re: friend with undigested food in stool - what could it be?

[Guest guest]

Hey guys,I don't think he's ever had his gall bladder or liver checked. He says he's going to see his doctor while he's home visiting his parents and ask about his symptoms.My first thought was enzymes too, but I really want to make sure I kind find out as much information as possible about the various complex interactions in the digestive system that might be interfering with proper digestion etc. in this case. My best idea is to suggest general Chinese medicine remedies for pancreas/stomach, like increasing stomach fire, but I really don't want to use too blunt a tool.. Chinese medicine, for instance, is not aware of or has not incorporated the SCD for IBD... I'm hoping this isn't something that has to be treated with SCD, as he is a busy college student who works, and lives only with a busy college student girlfriend who works..

Thank you very much for the info Amelia about low stomach acid and body temperature thyroid/adrenals, I'm going to do my best to follow up on that leadAny other hints you guys can give us would be great

Thanks!!
