Four in five Brits (79%) have suffered embarrassing stomach issues – with 73% experiencing diarrhoea, constipation, or bloating as often as once a week, a study has found.
Breaking wind in public, leaving a public toilet smelly, and being unable to suppress their stomach gurgling loudly during a job interview, are other gut-related incidents that leave adults red-faced.
But 39%, of the 2,000 adults polled, don't know what foods to include in their diet to help their gut – with 43% unaware of how important fibre is for their digestion.
