Clearly, indigestion has become a national epidemic. One in 3 Americans regularly experiences some type of digestive difficulty—such as gas, stomach acid, constipation or a serious digestive disease. Americans now spend $3 billion each year on over-the-counter antacids, laxatives, acid blockers and fiber supplements. Now there's help for anyone with concerns about digestive health from Mayo Clinic, one of the most respected medical institutions in the world. Mayo Clinic on Digestive Health provides the answers you need to lead a more comfortable and enjoyable life.

Along with the advice of your doctor, this book can help you enjoy life with fewer digestive problems.
