Stop it.: There is no good research that I can find that says this even works! Since there is no unbiased information about the product, then info on side effects will also likely be biased. Stop it. If your diarrhea does not improved, see your doc. Eat okra, the vegetable, instead of a pill, instead. It's high in fiber and has other good things in it.
