Apple Pectin is a general intestinal regulator that is used in many medicinal preparations, and is said to be an especially effective anti-diarrheal agent. It has an important function in the intestinal tract, having a scavenger effect in intestinal digestion by exerting a bacteriostatic action. The water-soluble fiber in Pectin has a gel-forming effect when mixed with water that helps to maintain intestinal balance by cleansing the intestinal tract. Pectin increases viscosity and volume of stool so that it is used to combat both constipation and diarrhea. It is amphoteric, which means that it works in two directions: It will help to thicken bowels that are loose or loosen up bowels that are constipated.
