Frequently asked Questions about Looz 10gm Solution 180ml

Question almost 6 years ago

How does Looz work?

Dr. Uday Nath Sahoo MBBS , Internal Medicine

Constipation: Looz is non-digestible in human beings because of which, it passes as it is into the large intestine. The resident bacteria in the intestine act on it to convert it into lactic acid, acetic acid, and formic acid, drawing fluid into the stool and thus softening it. This makes it easier to pass the stool, and thus helps in relieving constipation.

Hepatic encephalopathy: In the event of liver failure, ammonia detoxification is difficult. If the level of ammonia in the bloodstream increases, it can reach the brain and damage it. Thus it is important to get rid of the excess ammonia. Looz pulls ammonia from the bloodstream and helps in discharging it via the stool, thus preventing brain damage.
