Vitamin C improves diarrheic calf health
Does vitamin C supplementation in milk improve growth and health of diarrheic calves?
High relevance to diarrhea treatment
We investigated how adding vitamin C to milk influences the growth and health of young calves, particularly those experiencing diarrhea. The study involved 48 Holstein calves, which were sorted into two groups based on their health status: healthy calves and those with diarrhea. Each calf was fed the same amount of pasteurized milk and monitored until they reached 74 days of age.

Calves that received vitamin C showed an impressive increase in weight by weaning—74.3 kg compared to 72.2 kg for those without vitamin C. Additionally, calves treated with vitamin C demonstrated improved blood antioxidant levels, suggesting better overall health. Notably, calves suffering from diarrhea benefitted significantly from the vitamin C, needing fewer days of medication for treatment compared to those who did not receive the supplement.

The research highlights that vitamin C can play a critical role in supporting the health of calves during episodes of diarrhea. This is especially relevant for those that faced even mild cases early in life, as they seemed to gain the most benefits from the supplementation. Overall, it appears that vitamin C can positively impact both growth and health in calves suffering from diarrhea.

Ranitidine outperforms probiotics
A short course of oral ranitidine as a novel treatment for toddler's diarrhea: a parallel-group randomized controlled trial.
Combination treatment complicates analysis
We explored the effectiveness of a short course of oral ranitidine compared to probiotics in treating toddler's diarrhea. In a carefully designed trial, 40 participants were randomly assigned to three groups: those receiving ranitidine, those taking probiotics with vitamin C, and a placebo group.

Our main focus was to see if any of these options could reduce the frequency of stools and improve their consistency after ten days of treatment. While the results showed that oral ranitidine outperformed probiotics in managing toddler's diarrhea, the role of vitamin C was less clear.

It's important to highlight that in this study, the probiotics were combined with vitamin C, making it difficult to isolate its individual effects on diarrhea. Overall, we found that ranitidine was more effective than the probiotics, but we can't confidently say how vitamin C contributed to the outcomes. We recommend further studies to investigate these treatments in more detail.

Stomach discomfort
Although I trust Garden of Life for quality ingredients, this particular form of vitamin C is too harsh on my stomach and leads to diarrhoea. Therefore, I won’t purchase it again.

Initial diarrhoea issue
Initially, I experienced diarrhoea due to the probiotics, but overall, I find this vitamin C to be one of the best on the market. The pill is a bit large, but the composition is good, and I hope it benefits others as well.
