Details: Combining cutting-edge neuroscience with the latest discoveries on the human microbiome, a practical guide in the tradition of Wheat Belly and Grain Brain that conclusively demonstrates the inextricable, biological link between mind and body.
We have all experienced the connection between our mind and our gutโthe decision we made because it โfelt rightโ; the butterflies in our stomach before a big meeting; the anxious stomach rumbling when weโre stressed out. While the dialogue between the gut and the brain has been recognized by ancient healing traditions, including Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, Western medicine has failed to appreciate the complexity of how the brain, gut, and more recently, the microbiomeโthe microorganisms that live inside usโcommunicate with one another. In The Mind-Gut Connection, Dr. Emeran Mayer, executive director of the UCLA Center for Neurobiology of Stress, offers a revolutionary look at this developing science, teaching us how to harness the power of the mind-gut connection to take charge of our health.
The Mind-Gut Connection shows how to keep the brain-gut communication clear and balanced to:
โข heal the gut by focusing on a plant-based diet
โข balance the microbiome by consuming fermented foods and probiotics, fasting, and cutting out sugar and processed foods
โข promote weight loss by detoxifying and creating healthy digestion and maximum nutrient absorption
โข boost immunity and prevent the onset of neurological diseases such as Parkinsonโs and
Alzheimerโs
โข generate a happier mindset and reduce fatigue, moodiness, anxiety, and depression
โข prevent and heal GI disorders such as leaky gut syndrome, food sensitivities and allergies, and IBS, as well as digestive discomfort such as heartburn and bloating
โข and much more.
