Hidden in the walls of the digestive system, the “brain in your gut” links to your mood, health and digestion, affecting how you think and feel. Please join Schaumburg Township’s Community Health Nurse, Janet Stachula, to learn the signs and symptoms of an unhealthy gut and it's connection to your mental well being, and conditions such as Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), gallstones, celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), hemorrhoids, diverticulitis, and anal fissures. Stachula also discusses common strategies for managing these disorders and explains when it is important to seek medical care from your physician.
