This is a sample of the actual book and so doesn't contain the entire contents.
However it still makes for an interesting read and having become more 'gut' conscious due to recent health issues I will certainly take some of the feedback on board.
Many thanks to the publisher for allowing me to take a look.
Great book, very educational about gut heath. Fab recipes included, with good clear instructions and photos
An informative sampler of an healthy diet book focusing on gut health. The author points out that each gut is unique and to this effect the generalisations following were probably null and void. Some interesting information though and probably some good practices to put into action but it is also fairly similar in certain sections to other books. The recipes included in the sample were interesting but would involve getting some ingredients in specifically, Teff Grains for instance, not all of us live near a town with health food shops so it would have been helpful to have easily obtained alternatives especially when one is eating fresh seasonal produce. It seems to be another vegetarian based book although not the trend of vegan and advocates fresh food freshly prepared which is a good message to put out.
I was hoping for a bit more detailed information from this book, but it was a bit like reading a magazine and everything was at a really high level. Considering each gut is unique it would be hard to build your own program from this book. Lots of beautiful pictures of the author, but I felt the book needed a bit more substance. Wasn't too keen on the sample recipes either but hopefully the full book will have something better in.
This is an OK book, some of the information I found interesting, I can definitely put it into practice but the actual recipes (although tasty sounding) weren't really aimed at families which is what I needed.
Not sure whether you'd be able to eat yourself healthy with just this book but it's a good start.
I have followed Dr. Megan Rossi for a while on social media and have listened to podcasts.
As I personally have some health problems and have tried the FODMAP diet,I was so glad to be able to read an extract from her new book!
I found the sample very informative and insightful and can’t wait to read the entire book.
I particularly appreciated the chapter about physical exercise and yoga,as I strongly believe that they are essential for overall wellbeing and gut problems.
I can’t wait to read the rest of the book and try the recipes as well.
As someone who suffers from intolerance to pepper of any sort and with a daughter who suffers from IBS I was intrigued by the title of the book.
I have highlighted several parts already and it will be a file that I will revert to several times.
I would have liked to see the actual book as I think that these books are easier to have in hard copy as opposed to e books.
Thanks for the opportunity to see the sample copy.
A very interesting read and I learnt a lot of new information about gut health. I look forward to trying some of the recipes in the future.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for this ARC
