Stabilizing Remedies
DEGREE 1 – Very Gentle Stabilizers
(Soft soothing support that calms irritation without tightening strongly.)
Very gentle stabilizers are usually recommended for mildly sensitive or recovering digestion. Symptoms look like occasional loose stools, mild gut sensitivity, slight urgency after meals, light irritation, post-illness recovery, or digestion that improves with warmth and simple foods but reacts to heavy or greasy meals.
DEGREE 2 – Gentle / Moderate Stabilizers
(Calming and lightly toning support that reduces irritation and improves stool form.)
Gentle to moderate stabilizers are usually recommended for ongoing sensitivity with mild looseness. Symptoms look like loose stools a few times per week, rumbling after meals, urgency under stress, mild burning, stools that are soft but formed, bloating with reactivity, and digestion that feels “unsteady” but not severe.
DEGREE 3 – Moderate / Strong Stabilizers
(Noticeable toning support that firms tissues and reduces excess fluid loss.)
Moderate to strong stabilizers are usually recommended for clearly loose or reactive digestion. Symptoms look like frequent loose stools, urgency, stools that fall apart in the toilet, excess mucus, irritation with many foods, difficulty maintaining stool form, and feeling drained after bowel movements.
DEGREE 4 – Strong Stabilizers
(Firm toning support that significantly reduces looseness and overactivity.)
Strong stabilizers are usually recommended for very loose, urgent, or depleted digestion. Symptoms look like chronic diarrhea, strong urgency, watery stools, weakness after bowel movements, inability to tolerate most foods, gut inflammation, and digestion that feels unstable and easily aggravated.
