Take Charge of Your Digestive Health

Dear e-newsletter subscriber,

Mayo Clinic announces an opportunity for users of:

• Antacids
• Laxatives
• Acid blockers
• Fiber supplements
• And other digestive aids

Have you tried over-the-counter antacids, laxatives, acid blockers or fiber supplements to treat stomach upset or other digestive problems?

Are you bothered by a digestive disorder such as ulcers, Crohn's disease, GERD, irritable bowel syndrome or diverticular disease?

If you said "yes" to any of these, I invite you to discover the treatment options and lifestyle recommendations in Mayo Clinic's third edition on digestive health.

A bout of abdominal pain, gas, diarrhea or constipation can ruin your day in a hurry. Over-the-counter products offer effective relief on an occasional basis.

But to truly enjoy good health, it's far better to learn ways to prevent digestive upset in the first place, and to avoid truly serious digestive diseases later.

In this third edition of Mayo Clinic on Digestive Health, you'll learn what it takes to keep your digestive system healthy and what to do when something goes wrong. This easy-to-understand guide brings you news you can use and trust from Mayo Clinic doctors ...

• Learn Mayo Clinic's recipe for healthy digestion. Making smart mealtime choices is perhaps the best way to keep your digestive system healthy day in and day out.
• Many cases of nausea, stomach pain and ulcers are caused by drug side effects. The book tells you which drugs to use with caution — or not at all.
• Do your "gut feelings" warrant self-care, or should you seek medical attention? Learn what your symptoms mean and when to see a doctor.
• Many ulcers can now be cured — yes, cured — in less than 30 days.
• Could a diagnostic test help you? Read what Mayo doctors tell their patients about the value of procedures that you and your own doctor may want to consider.
• Daily heartburn calls for more than over-the-counter remedies. Mayo Clinic on Digestive Health explains the causes and the most effective treatments for gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD.

Mayo Clinic on Digestive Health also provides you with helpful, medically reliable guidance on irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis ... celiac disease, diverticular disease, gallstones, and liver disease ... as well as stomach cancer, colon cancer and other cancers of the digestive tract.

Our hope is that Mayo Clinic on Digestive Health helps you enjoy better health with fewer digestive concerns. The guidance in this book should make your digestive problems more understandable, more manageable and more responsive to treatment.

Too often, people wait too long before seeking help from their doctors. If you have recurring or persistent symptoms, don't ignore them. Early treatment can prevent a problem from becoming serious, thereby reducing the need for costly and sometimes risky medical treatment, and increasing the chance your condition can be treated or cured.

For the recently reduced price of only $26.95, you can arm yourself with this useful reference guide to maintain optimal digestive health. Order Mayo Clinic on Digestive Health today and take charge.

Yours in good health,
