has anyone had the runs after drinking acv?

ivebeen drinking it for 4 weeks now and suddenly thsi week, after a process of elimination of various foods, feel like its the acv..maybe a bad bottle. i had teh horrible runs for a couple days.

and how does having diarrhea effect swaying blue???

im now using a new acv bottle and using 1 tblspn instead of 2 per 4 oz of water..just wondering if it could have a reaction. dh thinks my body is reacting to me trying to adjust my pH and that this is as high as itll get...?

I got diahrrea from the COT drink, almost instantly--it was totally weird! But the ACV hasn't bothered me. I actually mix it with my juice and a pack of gelatin and chug it. How often do you drink it? I only do it once a day. I can't fit it in any more times. I drink lemon water, AVC/juice/gelatin, ASG x2, V8/NY, lemon water, and then my day is done. In between all that stuff, I am eating all the food I can.

This diet is a killer. I was worried about not gaining weight at first--what a joke! I have gained 10 lbs in the past 6 weeks. I am a total cow!! I know I am supposed to gain weight, but I am so tired of feeling full and heavy. :(

Diarrhea is bad for blue sway bcos you are losing minerals esp Na - Sodium (and Cl but that'
s not so important) and K ( Potassium).

I know you are probably not dehydrated but you should get one of those solutions for oral rehydration, they have optimum mineral balance and they will help you to restore levels of Na/K. Even if you didn't lose much minerals, those solutions can't harm you, they are always benefitial.

I believe a package should be enough.

I would ease up on the drink for sure if it is doing this to you - listen to your body! xx

I am inclined to agree - I certainly don't think anyone need cancel their sway because of loose stools (because eating that amount of food, esp. the dry fruits and fruit juice, can def. cause things to move along! o.O) BUT if you know something is chronically upsetting your stomach, it's best to skip it and use something else instead. Drinking a Gatorade, coconut water, or some other product will help rectify the situation.

No, but you can get diarrhea from the fiber in them!! Raisins and apricots are notorious for causing tummy problems.
