Summary. Rote memorization has its place in learning, but the distinction between rote learning and meaningful learning is important. The goal of teaching is for students to understand the material they're being asked to learn, not simply to memorize it to pass a test.
Avoid milk products, caffeine, alcohol, and apple and pear juices, because they may worsen diarrhea. Soft, bland foods are recommended as well, including bananas, plain rice, toast, crackers, boiled potatoes, smooth peanut butter, cottage cheese, noodles and applesauce.
- sweet potatoes can be quite effective for diarrhea - if not allergic to it, a teaspoon of slippery elm added to a cup of simmering water can be soothing to the gut. - I would be cautious with acacia -- it may result in loose stools itself.
