The microbiome—the collective name for the trillions of bacteria that live in our digestive tract—is today’s hottest medical news topic.
Dr. Robynne Chutkan explains how the standard Western diet and our super-sanitized lifestyle are starving our microbes, depleting the “good bugs” that are crucial for keeping us healthy, and encouraging the overgrowth of exactly the wrong types of bacteria.
But, as Dr. Chutkan explains, there are effective lifestyle and diet changes we can make to reverse this damage.
Dr. Chutkan has helped thousands of patients suffering from a disordered microbiome with her comprehensive Live Dirty Eat Clean Plan, designed to remove damaging medications and foods, replace important bacteria that have been lost, and restore health.
The MicrobiomeSolution offers:
A microbiome overview, nourishing recipes, questions for your doctor, preventative and recovery health tips, and the next frontier for a severely troubled microbiome—the stool transplant.
This is the first book to provide a practical, effective plan for replenishing and optimizing the vital ecosystem in our gut. Start living dirty and eating clean today to ward off disease and begin the path toward lifelong, vibrant health.
Even in medical schools, alternative medicine is blossoming. Two-thirds of them now offer courses in complementary healing practices, including nutrition.
At the heart of this revolution is macrobiotics, a simple, elegant, and delicious way of eating whose health benefits are being confirmed at an impressive rate by researchers around the world.
Macrobiotics is based on the laws of yin and yang—the complementary energies that flow throughout the universe and quicken every cell of our bodies and every morsel of the food we eat.
Michio Kushi and Alex Jack, distinguished educators of the macrobiotic way, believe that almost every human ailment from the common cold to cancer can be helped, and often cured, by balancing the flow of energy (the ki) inside us.
The most effective way to do this is to eat the right foods, according to our individual day-to-day needs.
Now in this marvelous guide, they give us the basics of macrobiotic eating and living and explain how to use this powerful source of healing to become healthier and happier, to prevent or relieve more than two hundred ailments, conditions, or disorders—both physical and psychological.
This encyclopedic compendium of macrobiotic fundamentals, remedies, menus, and recipes takes into account the newest thinking and evolving practices within the macrobiotic community.
The authors integrate all the information into a remarkable A to Z guide to macrobiotic healing—from AIDS, allergies, and arthritis, to cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.
They also clearly explain what we need to know to start eating a true macrobiotic diet that will provide us with a complete balance of energy and nutrients.
Living as we all do in environmental and climactic circumstances that are largely outside our personal control, it is vital that we follow a healthy lifestyle, including a flexible diet that we can adjust to meet our own individual needs.
The Macrobiotic Path to Total Health gives us precisely the tools and the understanding we need to achieve this goal. Use it to build a strong, active body and a cheerful, resourceful mind.

The Second Brain How gut-brain interactions affect our mood, decision-making, and overall health. Very interesting proposition, the study of intestinal flora is popular research at present.
During my postgraduate period, I also conducted research on the relationship between intestinal flora and medicine enema for chronic kidney disease.
Although I have some understanding of the change and stability of the flora structure, the shock, and novelty this book brought me were beyond my imagination.
The author is a very professional scientific researcher and a great storyteller. He combines these boring studies with our lives and uses the language of storytelling to bring readers into the book with questions.
However, if you're trying to read this book like a novel, you'd be wrong, it's a serious science book after all.
This book explains what we know but don't know why in terms of microbiota structure.
We ingest high-fat and high sugar into the gut, stimulate the release of information from microorganisms, and transmit it from nerves to the brain to produce inflammation. This inflammation may not manifest at the time, but what about later?
He will develop various diseases, such as irritable bowel syndrome, encephalopathy, coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, etc.
As the age grows, intestinal microorganisms gradually decrease, and Parkinson's syndrome is also in the elderly after the age of 60. This may be a new perception.
This book explains many phenomena from the perspective of the huge gut microbes that we are not familiar with, and also reveals another level of "people are different", and also reminds readers of the dangers of the high-fat and high-sugar diet in North America and the benefits of the Mediterranean diet. , use interesting questions, explain boring scientific research in popular language, and then connect with our life to provide healthy life guidance, this is the charm of this book.
But the only thing that makes the reading experience less enjoyable is that this book is more inclined to the form of a review. Although the author's story is good, it is still a bit cold as a scientific review.

In the past, my stomach often felt uncomfortable, and I would have abdominal distension and pain inexplicably. It can be said that it has troubled me all year round.
I also went to the hospital to see it, but nothing came out. It wasn't until I read the book "Eating Dirt" that I suddenly realized that I might be suffering from leaky gut syndrome. I will tell you the details below! Hope it helps those who have the same troubles as me.
To sum up, this book is: because of an unhealthy diet, excessive cleaning, living too convenient, too much stress, and excessive medication, the microbes in our guts are disappearing, and the absence of important gut bacteria will produce a Leaky gut.
A leaky gut can cause allergies, obesity, depression, eczema, acne, and other symptoms that make people feel uncomfortable. In order to improve these conditions, we need to eat soil. How to eat? Did you pick up the soil directly from the ground and eat it?
Of course not, Dr. Josh Akers suggests we can: eat probiotic-rich foods like yogurt; get a dog and wash its dirty paws; swim in the ocean; stay grounded and barefoot on Grass, muddy paths, or concrete sidewalks after rain, etc.
Some may ask, what exactly is a leaky gut? What has it got to do with me? The so-called leaky gut syndrome can probably be understood by looking at the picture below. As for whether you have a leaky gut, and if so how to improve it, this book will give you the answer.
