Archway Coconut Macaroon Cookies For Diarrhea

This is one of the tastiest and most unusual home remedies we have ever collected.

Donald Agar had suffered from Crohn's disease for many years. Diarrhea was a constant problem. By accident he discovered that Archway Coconut Macaroon cookies helped control the diarrhea better than any medicine he had taken.

Lots of people have written to tell us that eating coconut macaroons has stopped their diarrhea.

This is the essence of home remedies. The discovery relied on serendipity, but Donald also paid attention to how his body responded.We cannot promise that these cookies will work for everyone with serious diarrhea, but for some people they seem to be amazingly helpful. And for mild diarrhea, there is no reason not to try.

Reader Comments

Is it the coconut in the macaroons that helps the diarrhea? I'd rather not have the sugar; however, I've suffered from diarrhea for years, supposedly from just hereditary causes, because there is no other 'disease' related to it, and I'm game for trying anything.
