Product Information

Red wine is also thought to promote the growth of Bacteroidetes in the gut, which is a bacteria apparently associated with keeping us slim. I was minded to recommend this book to a friend with IBS but may pass on that, since the author's top success story was a sufferer who undertook the rather extreme step of deliberately infecting himself with hookworm. And yet it is extraordinary—a part of the body, hitherto relatively unexplored, with which I have recently become rather obsessed. I also love the fact that, buried in our intestines, deep inside its tissue, is a very thin layer of brain.

The microbiome not only protects our guts from invaders, it teaches and regulates our entire immune system.

Our main purpose is to provide tasty recipes and point you in the direction of delicious foods that have not only been shown to be super healthy, but which have also been shown to help feed and reinforce the army of microbes, also known as the microbiome, that live in your gut. Mosley also shares a simple two-phase healing program, an effective way to repair and replenish the microbiome and to ease intestinal distress. I also sometimes find the examples used a bit thin/superficial even for an "entertaining" non-fiction book, such as references to Rebel Wilson's diet.

But my audience had been warned that if they were waiting for the camera to pop out the other end they could be in for a very long wait. In this book I am going to be talking a lot about the gut-brain axis and the new science that surrounds it. Considering the fact that it houses the equivalent of a film crew, complete with lights and camera, it is impressively small. Z jednej strony brak precyzji przy tym gdzie wartałoby ją dodać, a z drugiej aż za duża precyzja, w miejscach, w której chyba nikt jej nie oczekuje.

The section on hook worm is not for the faint hearted but reinforces the wisdom of not eating pork whilst in the tropics. More important, while there are foods that will help your microbiome thrive (and that’s why this book contains recipes), few of the products that are sold on this basis have credible science behind them. One of reasons for this is because poor diet and overuse of antibiotics have killed off lots of the “good” microbes, also known as Old Friends, that live in the gut.Also learnt something about that alleged "white elephant" the appendix: Apparently after a bad attack of diarrhoea, the sufferer needs to reseed his purged guts with 'good' bacteria, and the organ in question acts as "the Noah's Ark of the gut world, ready to repopulate your gut when the waters subside. When you swallow food, the esophagus detects it as it touches its wall and the muscles begin to contract, pushing the food farther down.

Also known as gastric ulcers, these are open sores that develop on the lining of the stomach and small intestine.Before you crack into the Sauv, we’re talking a moderate intake of red wine, which Dr Mosley notes has been linked to lower cholesterol, possibly thanks to its Bifidobacteria content. Very informative about what microbiome actually is and how it affects us - our mood, our weight, our cravings. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. We have also seen a huge surge in autoimmune diseases, ranging from inflammatory bowel disease to type 1 diabetes, which again are primarily caused by an immune system that has gotten out of control. The explanation given is that certain foods have certain effects on the the gut biome, which can and does have feedback loops.
