One problem can be not getting enough of a supplement (i.e.iron) if
one is low. Another problem is often that one is not digesting
properly. Most often this means the small intestine is not digesting
and absorbing the nutrients from the food. Solutions to this can be
enzymes, exercise like yoga that specifically works on the digestive
system and supplements. This may be controversial but the yogic and
Ayurvedic view is that the stool should float and you are floating; if
it sinks then you are sinking. The reason is that the body will
absorb the minerals (metals) in the foods if the body is digesting
properly. Metals are heavier than water. If the metals are digested
then the stool will be lighter than water and float. Also probiotics
can help this.
