Re: is 16 BM's per 24 hours normal after a fast?

First of all, saliva has to mix well with your food including juices. Your intestines are not dealing with fiber due to lack of good bacteria. Take some probiotic pills. As WS mentioned yogurt from both ends will help.

Best thing to do I'd to eat short grain brown rice with yogurt. It will bind your stools well and stop the BMs. If you can make Khichree, even better. I love split moong bean Khichree. Take equal parts of brown rice and split moong beans, put it in a pressure cooker with water, one inch above the mix, add Sea Salt andvturmeric powder and once the whistle blows three times you should be done.

Best thing for too many BMs.

Make sure you chew your food thoroughly.

Peace.
