Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

GI side effects when using AYMES MADRID
Recording of absence/presence of any nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, bloating / flatulence, when using AYMES MADRID as assessed by presence / absence of side effect compared to baseline period.

Bowel habits of subjects when using AYMES MADRID - frequency
Recording of bowel habits whilst subjects consuming AYMES MADRID, as assessed by frequency of bowel movements (number of stools per day) and compared to same data recorded during baseline period.
Bowel habits of subjects when using AYMES MADRID - stool consistency
Recording of bowel habits whilst subjects consuming AYMES MADRID, as assessed by consistency of stools (assessed by Bristol Stool Chart) and compared to same data recorded during baseline period
