Show Notes

In this episode I look at symptoms affecting the gut. They are one of the most common presentations in

general practice.


Most of us experience some kind of gastrointestinal symptom at some point in our lives. I delve into my understanding on how the gut works and how and why things can go wrong and what we can do to help ourselves.
