Question
MY bowels are becoming irregular since a few months. Stool is slightly whitish, the yellow color is fading. But it is firm and not loose. I am having at least three motions a day. Due to this probably, I am having foul breath. I am 30 male. What do you think it is? Do I need to see a doc or I can treat myself at home with your suggestion? I have regular food habits, I was an alcoholic earlier (till a year ago), but know lead a careful and healthy lifestyle.
Thanks in advance,

Answer
Hello Steve,

As a rule of thumb
PALE OR CLAY-COLORED  - Minimal amounts of bile are being excreted, perhaps because of problems with the gallbladder or liver.
So I would work with the liver/gallbladder.
I wonder if you are having a hard time breaking down fats?
I would think using
Gallbladder Formula and Proactazyme Plus with each meal to support digesting foods and the gallbladder. I would also personally do the milk thistle time release. This will support the liver, esp with a past of drinking,

Seeing a doctors does help you get a diagnosis which can be helpful so you can make a decision about what you would want for your health as I am not a doctor and can't diagnoise or prescibe.
