Why we chose this book

As nutrition professionals, we need to know more about the gut and how it works or doesn't work. This book covers the physiology and diseases of the gut and we have other books that cover the hormones, leaky gut syndrome, food intolerances that begin in the gut, etc. Very popular book over the years!
