It seems that as Americans, we tend to eat a lot of things that just plain aren’t good for us. Some of those things remain in the body way too long and cause gastric distress. Haven’t you noticed how many people consume antacids and anti-gas medicines repeatedly through the day? Something’s definitely wrong with that picture.

It’s not normal to need those medicines several times a day. A normal digestive system can handle a wide variety of foods. This may mean the foods themselves are the culprit. Perhaps the way they are raised or processed has caused them to be less friendly to our stomachs and lower tracts? I really don’t know, but I’d hate to think everyone needs a colon cleanse just to get right. Yet, that may be exactly what needs to be done - then change what we eat and how our food is raised!
