SHINY / OILY / FATTY STOOLS (Steatorrhea)
Table of Contents
Are you prone to a problem with 'Shiny / oily / fatty stools'? Find your imbalances and create a diet for your Poop by taking the free poop quiz: AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON SHINY / OILY / FATTY STOOLSFatty poop, greasy stools, steatorrhea, or whatever you'd like to call it, one thing is certain: oily stool indicates dysfunctional fat absorption. Fatty stools can manifest in different ways. You may see oil floating in the toilet with stool, light colored stools, loose stools or floating stools. Fatty stools may also have a foul smell due to undigested fat fermenting.If you're experiencing oily stools or undigested fat in stool, chances are your belly isn't happy with one of your diet or lifestyle habits. Or, you have an underlying condition. According to Ayurveda, fat in stools is a problem of a low or weak digestive fire (agni). The majority of fat absorption occurs in the small intestine, specifically the first 100 cm of the jejunum. In some cases the lining of the small intestine may be compromised. However, poor absorption of fats is more commonly caused by poor digestion of fats. Poor digestion of fat is generally caused by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) or bile insufficiency. Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency The pancreas is a narrow flat gland about 6 inches long, sitting below the rib cage in the back. Pancreatic lipase accounts for 90% of fat digestion. Fat digestion becomes impaired when output drops to 10% of normal levels. This results in malabsorption of fat which can lead to weight loss, loss of subcutaneous fat, muscle wasting, and deficiencies of fat-soluble vitamins such as A,D,E and K. When fat isn't digested well, it likely to become fermented, which causes gas, bloating and high toxic load to the liver. The main causes of EPI are cystic fibrosis and pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). Pancreatitis is generally caused by alcohol consumption, gallstones, and some infections, etc. Bile Insufficiency
Insufficient bile may also cause poor fat digestion and fatty poop. Bile is made in the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Its release is stimulated hormonally by the presence of cholecystokinin in the duodenum. Bile is recycled and reused 4-6 times daily. In a healthy individual, less than .5g of bile acids remains after reabsorption. When larger amounts of bile enters the colon, it stimulates water secretion and increased peristalsis, causing chronic diarrhea. Dysfunctional bile secretions is a major cause of oily stool.
If there is damage to the brush border membrane of the small intestine, re-absorption of bile is compromised. Overproduction of bile, gastro-intestinal surgery, or an overgrowth of bad bacteria are some of the more common culprits of damage to the small intestine. Pancreatic insufficiency causes the duodenum to become very acidic. . This acidity damages the intestine and also causes bile salts to precipitate out of solution, making them ineffective for fat digestion, and non-absorbable by the ileum. Instead, they are eliminated through the feces. Excess elimination of bile eventually depletes the bile acid pool, which is one of the more common oily stool causes. Gallbladder stagnation and biliary obstruction may also cause insufficient bile. Treatment
Ayurveda emphasizes good digestion for optimal health. Initially, it may be ideal to avoid meals and foods that are dominant in fat. Good hydration and electrolyte balance may improve pancreatic and bile output. Simply adding bitter greens like kale and sours like lemon can help reduce fat in stools. Bitters and sours are cholagogues, meaning they stimulate the increase of bile secretions.
Bitter herb formulas, such as Digestive Bitters before a meal encourages secretion of bile and therefore aids in proper fat digestion. Bitter ghee is Ayurveda's #1 fat digester. Support your liver and gallbladder with a chemical free, easy to digest diet. Take steps to protect your liver health by avoiding processed foods, and cooking at home. Gallbladder tonic is a formula produced by Joyful Belly to support a healthy gallbladder. Summary
Your elimination is a report card of how well your body is tolerating your diet and lifestyle, as well as any underlying conditions. Although steatorrhea causes are generally hard to observe, with a bit of research (as you've done here!), normalizing your elimination may be possible.
However, if you have steatorrhea or suspect pancreatic insufficiency, you should also get this condition checked by a medical doctor. A stool test can confirm whether your enzyme and bile output is adequate. Frequently, pancreatic insufficiency is irreversible but not always. John, the founder of Joyful Belly, had pancreatic insufficiency after contracting parasites overseas. With the use of Ayurveda, function was restored. If fatty stools aren't treated, the imbalance can worsen and impact the function of our bodily tissues. Put your best foot forward and march your way to healthier elimination today! Disclaimer: Conditions such as 'Shiny / oily / fatty stools' that cause tissue changes could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.

HOW AYURVEDA WORKS
ARE YOU WONDERING HOW AYURVEDA CAN HELP YOU?WHY IS AYURVEDA THE RIGHT SOLUTION?
Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic, systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you. Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?
Ayurveda starts by identifying your body type, which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths). It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders. Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder. It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of biocharaceristics (gunas). For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc. This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics. By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies - such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance your healing.

His approach to Ayurveda is clinical, yet exudes an ease which many find enjoyable and insightful.

John's commitment to the detailed study of digestive disorders reflects his zeal to get down to the roots of the problem. His hope and belief in the capacity of each & every client to improve their quality of life is nothing short of a personal passion. John's creativity in the kitchen and delight in cooking for others comes from his family oriented upbringing.
