Gut health is the new heart health: The more we learn about the intricate workings of the gastrointestinal system the better we understand how and why food and diet really do hold the key to optimal health. Besides affecting overall digestion (gas, bloating, bowel issues), the gut microbiome plays an important role in inflammation (including autoimmune disorders), mental health, weight control, reproductive health and more. This book reveals the amazing ways these beneficial bugs exert their influence over important mechanisms in the body and provide lifestyle strategies for keeping the system in balance. It explains which foods to eat to keep the good bugs happy and how to supplement the right way and figure out what your body’s unique needs are. This resource guide is the place to start for anyone who struggles with nagging health problems that don’t seem to have any definitive cause.

“A positive mental attitude is everything, and this inspirational as well as informative guide to good tummy health is fairly brimming with it.”—Booklist Are you eating a reasonable diet, getting enough exercise and still experiencing indigestion, bloat, or other “gut distress?” Do you experience frequent knots, butterflies, tension, or more severe symptoms in your gut? That’s because diet and exercise are only part of the equation—scientists are now proving what body/mind theorists have been saying all along: that the gut and brain are inextricably connected. Positive thoughts of joy, peace, and love contribute to a healthy gut. Negative thoughts of rage, resentment, and anxiety are like toxins in the gut. Gut Wisdom will help you learn how to listen to your gut to achieve total body health. Unlike other books on digestion, it is a friendly, readable, easy-to-understand guide that gives you specific procedures you can use to alleviate indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, diarrhea, and many other common ailments. “Gut Wisdom can help you be a happy Buddha once again.

The instant New York Times, USA Today, and Publisher's Weekly bestseller A bold new plant-based plan that challenges popular keto and paleo diets, from an award-winning gastroenterologist. The benefits of restrictive diets like paleo and keto have been touted for more than a decade, but as renowned gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, or "Dr. B," illuminates in this groundbreaking book, the explosion of studies on the microbiome makes it abundantly clear that elimination diets are in fact hazardous to our health. What studies clearly now show--and what Dr. B preaches with his patients--is that gut health is the key to boosting our metabolism, balancing our hormones, and taming the inflammation that causes a host of diseases. And the scientifically proven way to fuel our guts is with dietary fiber from an abundant variety of colorful plants. Forget about the fiber your grandmother used to take--the cutting-edge science on fiber is incredibly exciting. As Dr. B explains, fiber energizes our gut microbes to create powerhouse postbiotics called short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that are essential to our health. SCFAs are scientifically proven to promote weight loss, repair leaky gut, strengthen the microbiome, optimize the immune system, reduce food sensitivities, lower cholesterol, reverse type 2 diabetes, improve brain function, and even prevent cancer. Restrictive fad diets starve the gut of the critical fiber we need, weaken the microbes, and make our system vulnerable. As a former junk-food junkie, Dr. B knows firsthand the power of fiber to dramatically transform our health. The good news is that our guts can be trained. Fiber-rich, real foods--with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, seeds, nuts, and legumes--start working quickly and maintain your long-term health, promote weight loss, and allow you to thrive and feel great from the inside out. With a 28-day jumpstart program with menus and more than 65 recipes, along with essential advice on food sensitivities, Fiber Fueled offers the blueprint to start turbocharging your gut for lifelong health today.
