Catching an occasional cold or flu is inevitable. But do you sometimes feel like you catch everything that goes around the office or the family? Or maybe you feel a bit paranoid about not catching a cold or a flu because it goes straight to your lungs every time and you end up with bronchitis…or worse? Or maybe you’ve come to terms with your chronic nasal congestion, and you just make sure to carry a tissue everywhere you go…
Do you feel bloated all the time, especially after you eat? Is there pain in your belly after mealtimes that eventually leads to diarrhea? Although unpleasant to think about, almost everyone experiences these symptoms at some point. But if these are daily hurdles for you, occurring repeatedly over several months, there is more going on in your gut. This is especially the case if you find yourself staying within running distance from a bathroom, knowing you are going to be in there for 20 minutes or more at a time!
