References should be from either your textbook or a professional source such as American Gastroenterological AssociationLinks to an external site., Prescriber’s Digital Reference, etc. References should not be from sources such as MayoClinic, WebMD, etc. Additionally, avoid use of journal articles for this assignment as you are looking for a more global consensus than that of one journal article.
