"Everything you ever wanted to know about the gut (and then some)."
—SELF
Transform your understanding of the human gut: An enlightening journey through the most underrated organ with Dr. Giulia Enders' groundbreaking exploration of digestive health, microbial connections, and whole-body wellness.
Discover the secrets of your digestive system—and how to hone a healthy gut—plus new research on the mind-gut connection.
With quirky charm, science star and medical doctor Giulia Enders explains the gut's magic, answering questions like: What's really up with gluten and lactose intolerance? How does the gut affect obesity? What's the connection between our microbiome and mental health? Why does acid reflux happen? In this revised edition of her beloved bestseller, Enders includes a new section on the brain-gut connection, and dives into groundbreaking discoveries of psychobiotics—microbes with psychological effects that can influence mental health conditions like depression and even stress.
For too long, the gut has been the body's most ignored and least appreciated organ. But it does more than just dirty work; it's at the core of who we are, and this beguiling book will make you finally listen to those butterflies in your stomach: they're trying to tell you something important.
Readers will gain invaluable knowledge about optimizing their digestive health, understanding the gut-brain connection, and making informed decisions about diet and lifestyle choices. With its blend of science and engaging narrative, Gut empowers readers to take control of their health by understanding and nurturing the remarkable organ that influences so much of our physical and mental well-being.
