What is safe to use as a purge for collecting Stool analysis ?

[Guest guest]

I have the kits to ship back to the USA for the Great Smokies

Comprehensive Stool & parasite test. I don't know what to use as a

purge and wonder how effective the test will be as it will take a few

days to ship it- it is a 3 day collection test. Has anyone had problems

shipping regarding time delay? The last and only prior one has

had done, years ago, showed absolutely NIL good nor bad....weird. They

said it was unusual.

Sue if you order the test via iwdl

(http://www.iwdl.net/Stools%20CSAP.htm), then all you have to do is

worry about shipping to them in London and they take care of the rest.

I believe they send off a batch at a time to Great Smokies(probably

refridgerated).

NIL results means the test has gone horribly wrong - possibly

everything was killed off in transit. Best to let IWDL take care of

shipping.

BTW don't use this test to diagnose yeast. It is good for seeing the

state of bacteria (good vs bad) and the state of digestion. Although

for what it is, I think its overpriced, but its probably good to do

one to give you an idea whats going on in his gut.

I don't know about purges. Is it not possible to wait for a natural

bowel movement?

-Well I know what you mean about purges but out of 3 samples from 3

consecutive days it asks for a purged one...don't know why.
