What vitamins are good for sensitive digestive systems?

Specializes in Integrative Medicine

Depends: Zinc carnosine, dgl, cabbage juice and probiotics are some things that can be tried. Avoid peptobismol as the bismuth in it is extremely toxic. Increasing fiber intake gradually is also a good thing, and also helps good gut bugs grow.
