While extensive research has been carried out to study the gut microbiome – a collection of 100 trillion bacteria residing in the gut – completely understanding its impact on our overall health is still a medical mystery. Heal Thy Gut enables its readers to understand not only the anatomy of one of our most underrated organs, the gut – our second brain – but also its relationship with our mind, body and well-being. Along with gut-friendly recipes and easy-to-follow advice, this book will address symptoms of an unhealthy gut, how it impacts our mental health and immune system, and the emerging developments in the field.
