Digestive problems comprise the number one health problem in North America.
These concerns, encompassing everything from hemorrhoids to colon cancer, result in more time lost at work, school, and play than any other health problem. They also appear to be occurring with much more frequency while many of them were almost unheard of in our grandparents times, they are cropping up more and more and at an earlier and earlier age. We may not know it, but bacteria thrive in our bodies. There are more bacteria in the digestive system than there are cells in the body some one hundred trillion. We are not always aware of the role the friendly bacteria play.
