Hospitalizations for gastroparesis rose by 300% from 1997 to 2013” (2). 🟣  Awareness initiatives aim to enhance understanding of gastroparesis among the public and healthcare providers, advocating for better support and research to improve outcomes for affected individuals. #EndGastroparesis #AwarenessMatters ➡️ Additional information, and supports for Canadians are available from 🍁 Canadian Digestive Health Foundation: 1)https://lnkd.in/gwR4C_N6 2)https://lnkd.in/eSVXC8Bd

Healthier skin, better sleep and less bloating and fatigue. Check! When it comes to improving health, probiotics check all the boxes. Why? “Microbes in the lower intestinal tract help with digestion and immune system regulation. A disruption in bacteria levels can lead to gut inflammation and other problems.
