We’re learning more now about a condition (53) "functional abdominal pain" that is experienced by millions of kids every day.

"We think about it as being important in anxiety and depression and that’s all quite true, but what’s really interesting is that 95% of our body’s serotonin is in our gut, " says Campo.
Campo believes these kids have extremely sensitive intestines, and controlling the effects of serotonin may (65) ease the pain. It seemed to work for Kyle, who is now completely pain free for the first time in years.
