Dehydration could accompany diarrhoea and they both can be improved by medicines which can be purchased easily. If there are other concerns like stomach ache, or spasm, blood or smelly stools then you should contact us.&nbsp;Consider There are a few different reasons why anyone can have an episode of diarrhoea.&nbsp; Usually, a single episode of loose stool is a good thing, if your body suspects something unsafe and it would rather not keep it then that’s not bad.

“Wouldn’t it be dreadful to live in a country where they didn’t have tea?” ― (Sir Noël Coward 1899 – 1973) “and what about health?” – (takecare.uk 2023) You can say it all started 8 years ago when I published the only patient guide to Pharmacy in the UK. Being a <a href="https://publichealthmatters.blog.gov.uk/2019/06/28/pharmacy-playing-a-pivotal-role-in-prevention-and-public-health/">Pharmacist&nbsp;or Chemist</a>&nbsp;is a very satisfying profession. I spend my days finding solutions for others – makes a good life, I think anyway.I am still striving to improve&nbsp;greater health for Patients. In 2013 my findings showed me an “information hole” which I filled by writing the aforementioned guide.Over the years, other ideas led me to different conclusions, but none I could definitely say would improve your health over and above taking medicines. Using some mathematics for the last 2 years, I now conclude that your first step in any health issue is one of the most important factor, which can improve your <a href="https://www.who.int/about/governance/constitution">health.</a> Similarly, every step in the wrong direction will delay your healthcare.So, what&nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No%C3%ABl_Coward">Sir Noël</a> would make of waiting time if he was growing old now? What about our overall health as a nation? <a href="https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn03336/">Around 75% of 45-74 year are overweight if not obese</a>, 50% of over 50 years suffer mental health issues, what joy could tea hold if god forbid,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/category/statistics/dementia/">dementia&nbsp;</a>makes it impossible to recall childhood memories?I am not bright enough to stop&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L46SwgDT9To">the arrow of time</a>, for now, you and I will get old – but I am young with plenty of tea to help everyone reduce the anxiety and physical pain that comes with waiting to find the solution.All else being equal, <a href="https://www.bmj.com/content/365/bmj.l4184">the ability to receive the right health information is the most important factor in deciding the outcome of our health issues.</a> UK has the best healthcare professionals – and of course, I am biased. &nbsp;However, the case I am making today and here, is we need right health information at the right time. That's what is holding the population back. I understand and believe that availability of instant, qualified and expert health advice will transform the lives in UK. From providing comfort, relief and care to the individual and gradually <a href="https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/businessreview/2020/03/07/if-the-uk-is-high-tech-why-is-productivity-growth-slow-economists-weigh-in/">UK productivity can increase</a>.&nbsp;I started with PersonalChemist, which is now morphed into <a href="https://takecare.uk/">https://takecare.uk/</a> with kind effort and enthusiasm from everyone in our team and the initial 100 members of the public who trusted us to help them.&nbsp; On behalf of my team, I welcome you all in our efforts to help people when they need it most.
