Do You Have Gas & Bloating?

 
Gas and Bloating

Every person who eats food produces intestinal gas. In some individuals, gas can be excessive and embarrassing, causing abdominal bloating, frequent and excessive flatulence, or sharp, jabbing pains in the abdomen. Although it is caused by a variety of factors, it is ultimately the result of poor digestion. When one doesn’t have enough naturally occurring digestive enzymes, or eats foods that are difficult to digest, food is left in the colon in an undigested form. This undigested food is broken down by bad bacteria through a process of fermentation that then creates gas as a by-product.

"At 43, I'd dealt with some intestinal problems for about 3 years and I was encouraged to consider invasive testing. I've always believed that if you give the body what it needs it will repair itself. Two days after taking IntestiNew, I drove to my health food store to find the woman who recommended it just to give her a hug. It worked that fast! ReNew Life has my deepest, heartfelt appreciation for creating a product that really works, and I'll tell everyone I know!" - Julie H., Charlotte NC
