Zinc oxide mitigates diarrhea impacts
We explored how zinc oxide (ZnO), often used as a feed additive, affects diarrhea and gut health in piglets infected with the ETEC K88 strain. Through careful observation, we found that piglets suffering from this infection exhibited significantly increased fecal scores compared to those not affected. The ETEC K88 strain harms the small intestine, leading to a loss of villus height and a decrease in important antioxidant activities.

Our findings revealed that ZnO administration counteracts these negative effects effectively. It not only improved the overall health of the intestine but also enhanced its ability to combat oxidative stress. We also observed a balanced restoration of gut microbiota, as ZnO helped normalize the populations of certain beneficial bacteria altered by the infection.

In summary, our study indicates that ZnO can play a vital role in easing diarrhea in piglets infected with ETEC K88 by reducing intestinal damage, supporting antioxidative defenses, and restoring healthy gut flora.

Diarrhea resolved

For years, I battled atopic dermatitis, but after using this product, I noticed quick healing. I also suffered from frequent diarrhea, but after taking this supplement, I haven't experienced it again, which was quite a pleasant surprise. The tablets aren't capsules, making them a bit difficult to swallow initially, but I adapted without issue.

Drug didn't fit
This drug did not suit me; I experienced nausea and diarrhoea. I attempted to take one and a half tablets, but it simply did not work for me. There’s no need for an entire jar.

I consumed it on an empty stomach and experienced vomiting and diarrhoea. I am attempting to eat more to determine whether it is due to an empty stomach or a side effect.

Initial diarrhea symptoms
I divide it into four doses. After taking one tablet initially, I had symptoms of diarrhea, so I split it and took it in smaller amounts. I haven't yet felt the effects, but I intend to continue taking it for now.

Watch intake carefully
It's fine. The size makes it easy to consume, and I take it as a supplement while exercising. However, overconsumption may lead to diarrhoea, so please be cautious with your intake.

Avoid hunger
Avoid being hungry. I took one tablet on an empty stomach, ate, and suffered from vomiting and diarrhoea an hour later. It seems better to avoid hunger and reduce the dosage.
