A new study by Bayer of 1013 Australian women found that despite more than half of participants suffering from either bloating, gas, stomach pain or constipation, only 27 per cent felt comfortable discussing their digestive health with even a close friend or relative.
On top of that, 35 per cent of respondents would keep their symptoms entirely to themselves, due to embarrassment or a perception that it was ‘unattractive to talk about’.
