I used it for treating diarrhea, and I didn't really get any results, but I believe that is because teh diarrhea was caused by giardia (I had giardia in my house for quite some time before I found out. Sometimes it doesn't show up in fecals. I've had it off and on ever since..ugh). I do know people who use it routinely and swear by it. I'm not really in a position to do that, though.
