We investigated how extracts from light, medium, and dark roasted coffee beans affect contractions in the ileum, which is part of the intestine. The aim was to see if these coffee extracts could help manage gastrointestinal motility disorders like diarrhea.

During our experiments, we noticed that all coffee extracts reduced spontaneous contractions of rat ileum tissue in a dose-dependent manner. However, it was the light coffee extract that stood out, showing the most significant reduction in ileal contractions, especially at higher concentrations.

Our findings suggested that the antispasmodic effects of light coffee might be linked to its ability to inhibit calcium influx or interfere with calcium signaling pathways, which are crucial in muscle contractions. We found that certain compounds in the light coffee, such as chlorogenic acid and caffeine, likely contributed to this effect. Overall, our study indicates that light-roasted coffee has the potential to help manage conditions related to intestinal spasms and diarrhea.

Effective for diarrhoea

This clay is expensive but worth it. Clay is a safe remedy for health issues like diarrhoea; however, ensuring it's sourced from non-polluted areas is vital. After trying various cheaper brands, I opted for this one. I used it as a substitute for a medication that contained clay for my IBS-D. This clay effectively makes liquid stools more solid, and I rarely have diarrhoea attacks now. When my mother experienced a diarrhoea attack, this clay worked quickly for her as well, better than over-the-counter remedies.

I never leave 5-star reviews, but this has helped my IBS-D go from a 9-11 to a 1-2 within just 7 days. I've gone from miserable bloating for decades to a nearly flat stomach. I can now fit in my pants comfortably, and my back and joints have stopped aching. This product has truly changed my life—it works wonders for constant bloating and diarrhoea. After years of struggling, I finally found something that helps significantly. Tierra Buena is exceptional quality, and I've experienced fantastic customer service. I will continue using calcium bentonite for the rest of my life.

This product has improved our old dog's condition significantly. He previously faced long-term problems, including lack of appetite and diarrhoea. After trying various treatments without success, we gave him food-grade bentonite clay mixed with water. Within days, his appetite improved, and his diarrhoea disappeared. This product has shown promising results, and I'm eager to share this with others having similar issues.

No more diarrhoea

I've had “gimpy gut” issues all my life but after using this clay, no more pain, vomiting, or diarrhoea. I mix one teaspoon in water daily, and it’s the smoothest clay I’ve tried. It has made my digestive troubles disappear and significantly improved my overall gut health.

I purchased this clay specifically for diarrhoea after hearing about its benefits. It has been effective enough that I bought it a second time, as I've noticed improvements in my gut health and overall digestive comfort.
