Dein Bauch macht dich gesund

Your well-being resides in your gut! Will Bulsiewicz, award-winning physician and gastroenterologist, presents "Your Butt Makes You Healthy," a science-based, revolutionary, and plant-based plan for gut health and total wellness that has transformed both his own health and the health of hundreds of his patients. As renowned gastroenterologist Will Bulsiewicz, or simply 'Dr. B.' to his patients, points out in this groundbreaking book, the explosion of studies on the microbiome makes it abundantly clear that elimination diets are actually harmful to health. Studies now show it absolutely unequivocally—and Dr. B. preaches it to his patients: gut health is the key to boosting our metabolism, balancing our hormones, and taming inflammation that causes a host of diseases. The scientifically proven way to fire up our gut is fiber from a variety of colorful plants. Forget the fiber supplements your grandmother might have taken—the cutting-edge science on fiber is an incredibly exciting whodunit. Fiber stimulates our gut microbes to create powerful postbiotics called short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which are essential for our health. SCFAs have been scientifically proven to promote weight loss, repair leaky gut, strengthen the microbiome, optimize the immune system, reduce food intolerances, lower cholesterol, reverse type 2 diabetes, improve brain function, and even prevent cancer. Restrictive fad diets starve the gut of vital fiber, weaken the microbiome, and leave our system vulnerable. The result: preventable disease, weight gain, and a self-reinforcing downward spiral. With the 28-day program, you start a new healthy eating routine that brings the full variety of delicious vegan and vegetarian recipes to your plate.
