'We became the 'chief guinea pigs' for the British Gut Project
where we discovered that despite us having 100% the same DNA our
guts have only 40% the same microbiota... Thus our 'gut journey'
began.' With practical advice throughout from gut experts, this is
a fact-packed, achievable guide for better health. With a foreword
by Tim Spector. Alana and Lisa Macfarlane have spent the past few
years interviewing tons of gut experts: scientists, academics,
chefs and foodies to get the real scoop and science behind what we
eat. We now know how important the gut is to our health and
wellbeing, including its impact on our immune system and on
diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and even mental
health, but The Gut Stuff arms the reader with practical knowledge
and tangible tips - both lifestyle and dietary - so they can make
easy and life-changing decisions. Chapters include: Back to School
- biology and the microbiome; Mind and Body - the gut and immunity,
the gut and exercise, the gut and skin, the gut-brain axis, the gut
and sleep, the gut and hormones; Scientific Interlude on Pre- and
Probiotics; Bullsh*t Bin - mythbusting nutrition nonsense; What Can
You Do - top tips to support your gut; I've Gutta Problem - common
digestive issues; The Future of Science; The Gut Glossary. With
practical advice from gut experts, from how to de-stress for your
gut to the affects of alcohol on the gut, this is an achievable
guide for better health. Experts include: The Rooted Project,
Kimberley Wison, Dr Chris Lutterodt, Professor Glenn Gibson, John
Cryan and Ted Dinan, Jenna Macciochi, Miguel Mateas, Renee
McGregor, Ruairi Roberston, Sophie Medlin, Dr Rabia and Dr Gautam
Mehta. 'Twins are a great constant for medical research and we
became the 'chief guinea pigs' for the British Gut project where we
discovered that despite us having 100% the same DNA our guts have
only 40% the same microbiota, which could explain why our bodies
behave so differently. Thus our 'gut journey' began.'
