This book focuses on eating certain foods as part of a normal,
healthy diet, to help improve the digestive system. Eating higher
levels of fibre, naturally fermented foods and those that contain

efficiently. A helpful and clearly explained introduction sets out
what foods should be eaten and how to add quick-fix pre- and
probiotic foods to your meals. The book also offers a two-week
eating plan and recipes for dishes that are packed with the right
foods to balance your diet. Increase beneficial bacteria for
optimum gut health, and improve your digestion and well-being with
naturally fermented foods. Make your own pantry of probiotic
goodness: pickled vegetables, kimchi, sauerkraut and sourdough. The
book offers help and advice on how to improve digestion, detox
naturally, counteract bloating, reduce cholesterol, and reach and
maintain the correct weight. Contains 80 recipes and ideas,
together with food lists and an eating plan, to help alleviate the
symptoms of diarrhoea, constipation, IBS, coeliac disease and
diabetes.
