Brief Answer:
yogurt and curd

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

You can take plenty of fluids along with probiotics like yogurt and curds. Loose stools should settle down in a day or two. If it persists you should visit a doctor nearby. You may be advised to take antibiotics after evaluating the cause of loose stool.
