View allI'm wondering if having a bowel movement 3 or 4 times a day is something I should be worried about. Could this be a sign of a stomach problem, or is this totally normal?
Passing stool 3 to 4 times a day can be normal for some people, especially if the stools are well-formed and you're not experiencing any discomfort or other symptoms like bloating, pain, or diarrhea. However, if you notice any changes in consistency, color, or feel unwell, its a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues.

I usually avoid eating fruits because I'm not a fan, but the other day my friend's mom insisted that I try some papaya. Now, I'm dealing with a pretty bad stomachache and I feel bloated. Do you think the stomach pain is from eating the papaya? How can I get some relief and feel better soon?
Actually pappaya is good for health but some are irratable to pappaya , if you get same symptoms next its better to avoid rather than taking medicines

I recently chatted with a dietitian, and she recommended Liv52 to help me gain weight and potentially ease liver issues. I'm currently taking two tablets a day. Is it truly safe to use Liv52 for this purpose?
Liv52 contains plant based extracts. It has general antioxidant and liver protective properties. Liv52 is generally safe to take but you should consult a physician to undergo some liver function tests to be on the safer side.
