Visão Geral

Your stomach plays a key role in overall health by helping to digest food, absorb nutrients, and support your immune system. Poor digestive health can lead to problems such as bloating, constipation, or acid reflux.

Constipação is when you find it difficult to poo or don’t go as often as usual, often causing discomfort or bloating. It can be caused by a lack of fibre, not drinking enough fluids, not being active, ignoring the urge to go, or certain medications and medical conditions.
