Inside: Is your colon making you sick? This article will be a first step in determining that. Plus, you’ll get some tips to help get your digestive health back in order!

From my tween to my young adult years, I suffered with chronic, pounding, tear-inducing headaches and a face generously decorated with severe acne.

I didn’t quite understand why, I just chalked it up as a normal part of life… about as “normal” as the once-a-week-IF-I-was-lucky bowel movements I used to have.
