I really enjoy reading about health in general but a healthy gut and probiotics and food science in particular has always really interested me, so I’m very happy I nabbed this book on NetGalley. It was a really great combination of sciency and super easy to understand and written for the general public. Took me back to anatomy days in university and I appreciated the refresher! Also included some helpful hints and tips I hadn’t heard of before, and it reality checked some of the health ‘trends’ that are popular right now. It was a quick read and hopefully I’ll retain as much knowledge as possible.
My husband has celiac disease and IBS so we’re always looking for things to make life easier on his belly. This book is well-written and very informative. The instructions/suggestions are easy to understand and follow. Not too many understand how gut problems can negatively affect your overall health and well-being. This book shines a light on that and helps you become more aware of the day-to-day things that could impact you overall. We especially liked learning more about how gut health can affect your brain. I highly recommend this useful and informative book.
Really enjoyed this book! For anyone interested I. Health and wellbeing, gut health has been such a hot mention, but no one really knows that much about it. This sheds light on a lot of ways tackle gut problems and studies behind these. I found the tips on how to balance my own gut, especially the chapter on ways to improve gut health particularly interesting. Lots of new ways of thinking about the stomach!
This guide is particularly effective as it is clear and comprehensive. It includes explanations about the gut system, but also why it is so important, and how to keep it healthy. It deals with all kinds of issues such as gut microbiome, the signs of an unhealthy gut, diseases, ways to improve your gut health, foods (which to avoid, which to give a go) and ends with an amazing 4-week plan to restore your gut health. I’m French and English is not my native tongue but everything was readily understandable and fascinating. I knew how essential our gut health is but this book reminded me to what extent it is indeed vital! Thank you for such a fabulous book and your attention to detail.
I have always had problems with my gut. I've gone to many doctors, only to be prescribed pill after pill with no results. I have perused the book and I am really looking forward to implementing some of the ideas from this book and using the recipes to see if they will make a difference for me.
As a longtime sufferer of fibromyalgia / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, gut health is a subject in which I've become increasingly interested. Given my existing knowledge, Your Super Gut Feeling Restored didn't really teach me anything I hadn't known before, but it certainly reinforced the message that a healthy gut biome is essential to general health and wellbeing. The book also explores the phenomenon of the "gut-mind" connection, which is gaining ever-increasing credence within the mainstream medical community, as the direct link between gut microbiota and mood-affecting hormones has become clearly established. Unlike some other books I've read on the subject, Your Super Gut Feeling Restored also presented this information in a relatable format providing clear practical steps to enable the reader to make immediate positive changes to their own lifestyle. At the end of the book is a "4-Week Gut Restoration Plan", designed to provide a kick-start to achieving improved gut health, and I have to say the suggested meals sound both appetising and achievable - which isn't always the case with these kinds of eating plans! Author Robertino Bedenian is an international-level fitness instructor who has published fairly prolifically in the area of health and nutrition. Many of his previous books and articles have advocated a vegan lifestyle, however omnivores like myself will be pleased to find that this isn't a central pillar of Your Super Gut Feeling Restored. In addition to the text content, I also enjoyed the infographic-style illustrations at the start of each chapter, a couple of which I've linked into this review. I'd highly recommend Your Super Gut Feeling Restored as a comprehensive, practical, but not overly complicated starting point for those seeking to improve their digestive and overall health.
I didn't know I needed this book till I started to read it. It's a book about the gut-how it works, how it can be irritated and how you can treat itself better. I absolutely geeked out through the pages when I discovered the impact my gut has on the overall wellbeing of my body. If you have ever been bloated, constipated, gaseous and struggling with your stomach then this is the book for you. I recommend this book to everyone. Brilliant!
This is a very informative book written in a casual, easy to read manner. There are many summaries and recaps so the reader can set it down and come back to it later. I think this is an excellent feature of the book because it breaks the content down into bite -sized chunks that are easy to digest, whether the reader wants to sit down and consume it all in one go, or to come back to it and read it in small spurts. The book is ideal for just about everyone because its content is relevant to us all.
This is a comprehensive detailed book on how our digestive system with our gut works I am planning to give the 4 week FODMAP a trial, which will effectively cleanse the gut This is a must for anyone with gut related illnesses.
