The Mind-Gut Connection: How the Hidden Conversation Within Our Bodies Impacts Our Mood, Our Choices, and Our Overall Health

Can microbes influence our emotions and actions? It turns out that they are capable of not only this, but also much more! Dr. Emeran Mayer, MD, presents in her book a revolutionary look at the structure of the human body and the role played by the interaction between the brain and the gastrointestinal tract. The trillions of microorganisms that live in the intestines are in constant communication with each other and with the brain, and our general condition and even life decisions largely depend on it. In addition, failures in this interaction lead to the development of depression, autism, dementia and Parkinson's disease. The author convincingly shows that the health of the body and the fight against serious chronic diseases are impossible without establishing the right dialogue with your microbes.
