Diarrhea: Kaolin and pectin work as adsorbents, binding with excess fluid and waste in the intestines, which can help reduce diarrhea and regulate bowel movements.
Inflammation: Kaolin and pectin are sometimes used to soothe and protect the intestines during episodes of inflammation, such as during food poisoning or other gastrointestinal infections.
Food Poisoning: Kaolin and pectin are sometimes used as a treatment for food poisoning, as they can help reduce symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, and promote recovery.
