Maintaining Balance
You may already know how important it is to maintain
a healthy balance of the good bacteria that naturally reside
in your digestive system. But you might not realize the extent to
which this balance changes with age and is affected by diet, the environment,
hormonal changes and your stress level. An imbalance can lead to potentially uncomfortable digestive issues, including slow intestinal transit time.
