Digestive Health
Digestive health plays a key role in supporting overall wellness. However, 60 to 70 million Americans are affected by concerns over their digestive health.1 Research shows that up to 30% of Americans experience occasional gastrointestinal symptoms, including reflux, heartburn, abdominal discomfort, bloating, diarrhea, and/or constipation. 2
Optimizing nutrition plays a pivotal role in managing digestive health. Evidence-based dietary guidance from trusted health professionals can go a long way in helping patients effectively manage their occasional gastrointestinal symptoms – and ultimately improve their overall quality of life.
Nestlé Health Science offers a variety of nutritional solutions backed by research to help patients ease occasional digestive discomfort. Gut health supplements also come in a variety of forms like capsules, chewable tablets, and gummies to help meet patients’ needs and preferences.
