This book reflects directly on my understanding of good gut health but I appreciate it even more because Gundry provides history and scientific evidence to back up his recommendations. I also learned several new possibilities to further refine my own diet so looking forward to testing the theories presented. It's easy to read and contains a sprinkling of human stories to help inspire making adjustments to lead a healthier lifestyle.

This is the first "diet" book I've read that actually explains what goes on in the gut and explains why some foods are good and some bad depending on their effect in the gut and on the microbiome. The eating plan is quite restrictive and thus for some people it won't be sustainable. While my own weight loss on this plan has been partial, the eating plan has stabilized my weight, and stopped the constant slow weight gain. Especially recommended for people with autoimmune diseases.
