Understanding Gut Health Issues

Many common health issues, such as bloating, irritable bowel syndrome, and even anxiety, can be linked to gut health. These conditions often result from imbalances in gut bacteria, which can go undetected by standard tests like colonoscopies or endoscopies that only examine certain parts of the digestive system. Patients frequently report ongoing digestive complaints despite normal test results, underscoring the prevalence of gut-related issues. Addressing gut health is essential as it can lead to significant improvements in overall well-being.
