The evidence behind this quiz

These questions are organized around how digestion is understood today — symptom pattern, bowel habits, food triggers, and the gut–brain axis (why stress hits the stomach). The herb suggestions reflect traditional carminative and soothing use; peppermint and ginger in particular have systematic-review evidence for digestive symptoms. This is an educational tool, not a diagnosis.
