How do I know if a colic support group is reputable?

I cannot provide information about colic support groups because the search results focus on colic in horses, not humans. However, I can define what colic is.

Colic in horses refers to various disease conditions that cause abdominal pain. Horses are prone to colic due to digestive issues, with a mortality rate of about 11% in affected animals. Symptoms include pawing, kicking at the abdomen, and rolling. Anatomical features of the equine digestive tract, such as variations in the large colon’s diameter and limited attachment to the body wall, increase the risk of blockage and twisting. Dietary changes significantly influence colic incidence, with over 70 identified causes, making diagnosis difficult. Treatment includes pain relief medication, mineral oil for impaction, and surgery.
