One thing which is confusing me is how to recognise bowel tolerance when you have a condition which is causing diarrhea anyway - gastroenteritis might be an extreme example, but others would include food intolerance or an 'upset tummy'. I am trying to get my son up to bowel tolerance to help with suspected mononucleosis, but he tends to have diarrhea every few days anyway, and was having it every night even before we started on high dosese of (lypo) vitamin C. he's on about 10gr/day, which if you use a 10 to 1 equivalence for lypo vs IV and allow for his body weight (he's 13) probably converts to about 200gm/day IV, which was Klenner's (or Cathcart's?) recommendation for mononucleosis. Now I don't know whether to increase the dosage to combat a possible GI problem, or reduce it because he has reached bowel tolerance.
Apologies if this has already been answered somewhere on the foum, but I can't find it and I would have expected this to be quite a common question.
