Dietitian Sandra Mikhail’s frank and at times humorous tried-and-tested guide to bowel health based on her professional and personal experience
A no-nonsense, at times humorous, guide to gut health and disease, backed by the most recent science and drawing on lived examples from the author’s professional practice and personal health history and including gut health basics, the building blocks of food, the gut microbiome and the seven commonest gut conditions, finishing with a roadmap to a blissful gut. With this book, you will get to appreciate the complex nature of the human gut but also learn to nourish your internal ecosystem and cope with the most common gut conditions: Reflux disease, Bloating, Constipation, Diarrhea, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Food Intolerance and Hemorrhoids. Sandra shares her ‘four pillars’ approach and addresses the fundamental relationship between gut health and mental health, finishing with recipes to help you translate the nutritional science into gut-loving meals.
Reviews and Praise
"This book not only empowers those who suffer from gut-related problems to help themselves or seek further information but I would heartily recommend it for everyone – patients and professionals – for its cornucopia of up-to-date information, abundant humour and sensitivity in equal amounts and in such a chatty style, that I was surprised not to see her sitting in my study!"—Independent Living
