Registered dietitian Carolyn O’Neil partners with Sunsweet PlumSmart® to launch a new Web site. The site will be a source for customers to find information on digestive health, diets and digestive problems.
Yuba City, Calif. (PRWEB) September 24, 2007 -- Digestive health is becoming a priority concern of men and women nationwide. The National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse reported that 60 to 70 million Americans suffer from digestive diseases of one kind or another; in addition, less than 50 percent of adults in the U.S. consume a sufficient amount of fiber each day. In response, Sunsweet Growers, Inc., creators of PlumSmart fresh plum juice, has collaborated with Carolyn O’Neil, registered dietitian and award-winning author, to launch digestive health, which is currently available at major retailers nationwide.
