If you suffer from gut issues like constipation, slow bowels, diarrhoea, bloating, gas, pain, food intolerances... You are no doubt feeling frustrated by the lack of answers to these problems in mainstream medicine.

Do your parents or grandparents have heart disease? Diabetes? Alzheimer’s? Parkinson’s? MS? Cancer? Depression? Alcoholism? These conditions and many others have been shown to ‘run in families’.
