Description

Your gut is astonishingly clever. It contains millions of neurons - as many as you would find in the brain of a cat - and is home to the microbiome, an army of microbes that influences your mood, weight and immune system.In this groundbreaking book, Dr Mosley takes us on a revelatory journey through the gut, showing how junk food and overuse of antibiotics have wiped out many "good" gut bacteria, leading to a modern plague of allergies, food intolerances and obesity.Setting the record straight on everything from prebiotics to probiotics, fermented foods to fasting, Dr Mosley provides scientifically proven ways to control your appetite and boost your mood.The Clever Guts Diet is packed with delicious, healing recipes, menu plans, checklists and tips - all the tools you need to transform your gut and change the way you eat forever."I am one of the few people to have seen their own guts in action, and I can honestly say it was one of the most remarkable and informative experiences of my scientific career. In this book I'll tell you how your gut makes you who you are, and what you can do about it." - Dr Michael Mosley

Reviews

Praise for The Clever Guts Diet 'Written by the world's top "gut health guru", Mosely's new book is a balanced and evidence-based account of how it all works. Now the lay person can implement a diet plan and understand why it's going to work.' Nobel Prize winner, Professor Barry Marshall, Marshall Centre for Infectious Diseases Research and Training 'The life-changing new plan that'll make you healthier, happier and slimmer.' Daily Mail 'This book contains a very clear summary of the latest research and hopefully will go far to teach the public about our science (for which I am very grateful!).' Dr Nicholas Chia, Microbiome Program, Mayo Institute 'A fascinating journey exploring the gut and its tiny inhabitants. As Michael Mosley points out, we are only just beginning to get to grips with this mysterious world. Do try his pumpkin porridge or purple sauerkraut and examine your gut feelings.' Dr Roy Taylor, Professor of Medicine and Metabolism, Newcastle University (UK) 'Clever Guts is very well researched and well written. I'm a dermatologist with a particular interest in eczema and acne, and this emerging area of research is making us all reconsider how important gut health is and what we can do to optimise it.' Dr Clare Tait, Consultant Dermatologist at the Royal Perth Hospital and Fellow, Royal College of Physicians 'Dr Mosley, one of the world's leading writers covering nutrition and health, does it again with a very informative and entertaining book. Follow his advice for better gut health.' Dr Valter Longo, Director of the University of Southern California Longevity Institute 'A must read for all parents who want to understand the importance of good gut health in their children. This humorous, easy to read book has the potential to change a lot of lives.' Professor Desiree Silva, Consultant Paediatrician, University of Western Australia
