Super Gut

A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight

By: William Davis MD

Narrated by: Dan Bittner

From a New York Times bestselling author, a guide to restoring good bacteria to your gut–and keeping our microbiomes happy and healthy.

Because of our highly processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are now missing so many of the good bacteria that we require to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over our health, weight, mood, and even behavior.

With cutting-edge research, Dr. Davis connects the dots between gut health and modern ailments such as SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), a silent and profound epidemic, which affects one out of three people and is responsible for an astounding range of human health conditions.

Super Gut shows us how to fix your microbiome once and for all. It includes more than forty recipes, a diet plan, and resources so you can pinpoint your gut issues, correct them, and maintain your long-term health and well-being.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic reviews

“Super Gut reveals how virtually every aspect of our health is fundamentally influenced by the vast array of microscopic organisms living upon and within us. Dr. Davis makes it clear that so many issues related to living in our modern world challenge this relationship and set the stage for illness. But the good news, as Super Gut so eloquently portrays, centers on our new-found ability to improve the health and functionality of the vast array of microbes upon which we depend. It’s clear that we can manipulate this relationship to our advantage. And Dr. Davis shows us how.” (David Perlmutter, MD, author, number one New York Times best seller of Grain Brain and Drop Acid)

“Reading Super Gut is reading an incredibly important manual on building the super ‘hard drive’ for a long, healthy, and productive life.... With easy-to-implement, inexpensive recommendations, it won’t be long before you’re forever grateful you took the time to read and implement.... All disease begins in the gut. So build a Super Gut!” (Dr. Tom O’Bryan, author of The Autoimmune Fix and You Can Fix Your Brain)

"Super Gut brings the conversation into new territory. Bacteria are not the bad guys! Dr. Davis' plan helps you replenish the microbiome and eliminate those culprits that are depleting us of essential natural probiotics that maintain a healthy gut. Microbiome medicine is an essential part of good health, disease prevention, vitality, and longevity. Bravo to Dr. Davis on this newest addition to the literature.” (Dr. Raphael Kellman, founder of Microbiome Medicine, author of The Microbiome Diet, The Microbiome Breakthrough, and Microbiome Thyroid)

Good information if you can follow

Dr. Davis is very knowledgeable about this subject and has lots of information to share. Unfortunately there are just so many details with exact numbers and such, it is nearly impossible to follow all the advice and information coming your way. I wish he had just broken the plan down into an easier format. I think this would be a better read with a physical book. I had the same proplem with Undoctored by Dr Davis. He also spends quite a bit of time repeating the same information to drive home a point. I don't really need too much convincing. I'm here listening because I am already a convert to the importance of the microbiome. The yogurt is fantastic though! So for sure, get this info in one form or another.

Great book

If you value your health and nothing else is working then try this book and implement this program. I’m excited to get started.

Love it

I’m so excited to make the recipes! Hope he will try the nutrilite probiotics. I enjoyed the audio and the information.

A Must Read Book

The book is a Clarion call to all. It underscores the importance of Gut health and describes how to cultivate a healthy micro biome. Will be trying out the recipes.

Amazing book!!

I absolutely loved this book. I liked it so much that I bought paper version to access the recipes and take notes! I am very much looking forward to starting this 4 week protocol!!

Fermentation is indeed a whole new world to explore. Regenerative ag starting in my own gut!

This is a great book. Buying a paper copy so I can easily reread, mark pages with sticky notes, and scribble comments in margins. Thanks Dr. Davis!

Great info for anyone suffering with gut issues

My only real complaint about this book is there is no written schedule/plan for the 4 weeks of changes that need to be made. I had to grab a pen and paper and take notes and go back and listen several times to get all of the needed information, which there is a lot of. There were also a few points I disagreed on, like gallstones being caused by a low-fat, low calorie diet. I had my gallbladder removed at 18 and obvious signs of gallstones as early as 12 and I most definitely did not follow a low fat/calorie diet. Aside from some misguided opinions, overall this is a good book full of valuable information. I highly recommend it to anyone suffering with gut issues or skin rashes, like I have most of my life, and is determined to find relief. I’m not sure why some feel this is a “snake oil” or “sales pitch” when he’s not selling a product. None of the products you need to acquire are marketed by Dr. Davis. Even though it would be more convenient if he did. You have to keep in mind this guy is a doctor not necessarily a writer, so if you’re looking for an eloquently written novel go read the Brontë sisters or something.

Great info!

Based on actual peer reviewed studies! I applied the principles in this book (including making the yogurt) and started feeling better within the week.
