Digestive issues are considered the elephant in the room. Everyone knows there is something wrong, but many people often ignore symptoms such as gas, bloating, and constipation.

Two to three bowel movements per day is considered normal; however, nearly 50% of people in the U.S. have just one bowel movement daily.
