Publisher's summary

Recent cutting-edge research shows that human intestinal microbiota influences metabolism, appetite, energy, hormones, inflammation, and insulin resistance. Because gut microflora plays a central role in weight management, losing weight is much more than cutting calories, fat, or carbs. When the trillions of live bacteria in our digestive tract - the gut microbiome - are balanced, excess pounds melt away, and we feel revitalized.

A leading authority on digestive health and the gut microbiome, Gerard E. Mullin, MD, shares the first proven, science-based program to restore and retain weight loss by achieving a balanced gut flora in The Gut Balance Revolution. He reveals how to stifle the fat-forming, disease-promoting gut bacteria, reseed your gut with good fat-burning ones, and fertilize those friendly flora with just the right foods to reboot, rebalance, and renew your health - and lose weight for good.

Improve your health-read/listen to this book

Dr. Mullin is a gastroenterologist with a wealth of knowledge as well as personal and practical experience with the gut microbiome. This book was recommended to me by a doctor at a weightloss clinic. It can and will change your relationship to food and change your life, for the better. Do yourself a favor, improve your health today to live a longer, better, healthier life-read or listen to this book today. I recommend listening to it in the car AND buying the book as a hands-on resource guide.

Well written and presented conceptually!

Overall great intro to the microbiome world but a little more focus on supplements would have been great.

Awesome

Very informative and interesting whether you have zero nutritional knowledge or a PhD in the subject.

Already Healing!!

I have been studying the body for 19 years in an attempt to change my families and my own early death fate. My illness just like my families has several facets which has made making significant progress slow and arduous! This book takes the information it took me several years to learn and ties it into a nice bow. You may not look like American ideal when you are done but you will be healthy if you put in the work and use this book as a place to start for your own healing journey...and if you still want to look like a model after that you will be healthy enough to safely do it and have the tools! I suggest this amazing resource to every single person that has problems that this book can help. And to be honest that is 87% of everyone I know. Thank you for your empowering work that is making my strength and resilience building journey that much faster and easier. I am even more grateful for the kind and understanding way you did it. I am so sick of being shamed like so many “weight loss” and “health” professionals do. This is now my favorite educational book!

Incredible book!

I've studied nutrition and health for 20 years. I'm excited to try this after seeing the results in my BFF! Her countenance glows with health at 47 yrs. I'm impressed. Months will go by whether you do this or not, so just do it. Find the joy in the natural flavor of food. It isn't supposed to always be sweet. Just eat it and reap the rewards. It's worth it. Thanks for this book!!

What to eat, why - bought a hardcopy too

A great overview of what we need to do to repair years of damage to our gut and why it is important. I bought the hardcopy of this book after listening to this book - for quicker reference and periodic review of this important message.

This made a real difference in my life.

Lots of authors write about gut balance but this was the best I've read, written by the most qualified author. read it. it will change your life.

Too much focus on the review of other diets.

Could have been much better or much shorter. Too much focus on the review of other diets.
