For the past couple of weeks I have had mild diarrhea. I have been under a bit of stress during this time, but I don't know whether it might be that causing it or not. After all, I've never had this happen due to stress before. My diet has not changed; I have symptoms you'd expect to get from a lack of fiber. Could my body suddenly need more fiber than normal? I wouldn't think so considering that I'm fairly young(I'm eighteen). Do any diseases or parasites cause this? I don't think it's a tapeworm or anything like that because I haven't been getting really hungry - if anything, I've been eating less! Think it's just stress, or should I be worried? Two weeks seems like a long time to be having this problem. Thanks for your help.

Stress, diet, or disease?

I've had mild diarrhoea when I'm stressed, too. I put it down to a less active immune system allowing some bacteria to get through.Lack of fibre doesn't usually cause diarrhoea, but constipation.

Your body changes and, in my opinion, so should your diet. Incorporate more bananas in your diet and see if that helps regulating consistency of stools.

Bananas? I had no idea!Another reason I think it might be stress is because I started getting a lot of zits(I've never had trouble with acne before) and I've heard they can be caused by stress. I'm going to start watching my diet and see if I may have missed something. Thanks for the help guys.
