Super gut : a four-week plan to reprogram your microbiome, restore health, and lose weight / William Davis, MD.

Davis, William, 1957- (author.).

Summary:

"The ... author of the Wheat Belly books brings his next big, game changing idea--the human microbiome and the silent epidemic of SIBO--to the mainstream ... Dr. Davis takes his research and findings a step further and shows that because of our highly processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are now missing so many of the good bacteria required to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over health, weight, mood, even behavior ... Super Gut shows readers how to eliminate bad bacteria and bring back the missing 'good' bacteria with a four-week plan to reprogram your microbiome based on research and techniques ... explains the science clearly and includes more than forty recipes, a diet plan, and resources so you can pinpoint your gut issues, correct them, and maintain your long-term health and well-being." --Provided by publisher.
