This book is full of information to get to know your gut a little better. I loved the part about the effect of female hormones on the gut and the problems that are more likely to occur in women, and how easy is to follow it even without any previous knowledge about the disgestive system.
In my opinion it is too focused on IBS, I was looking for general information, and it was too specific to this disease.
There are good recipes, and I think an interesting diet and very useful tips if you suffer from IBS or any other digestive problem, but my recommendation is to always go to your doctor to have your progress monitored by a professional.
This book is recommended if you want to know a bit more about the biology behind the female digestive system and its most common diseases in women.

This is a great resource book for anyone with stomach problems. I have been using it and following some of the suggestions and strategies for a while and have found it really useful.

I loved this book on What Every Woman Needs to Know About Her Gut, the main goal of the authors is make women understand how their gut works, their condition and restore their gut health through knowledge, Helping women to use the FLAT Gut program to minimize their symptoms while concentrate on eating varied and nutritionally balanced diet. This book will surely improve the quality of life of the reader through better gut health.

Thank you Netgalley and Sheldon Press for a copy of this book for my honest review.

I just reviewed What Every Woman Needs to Know About Her Gut by Professor Barbara Ryan, MD, and Elaine McGowan, RD. #WhatEveryWomanNeedstoKnowAboutHerGut

I saw this title and was instantly sucked in. Gut Health and microbiome and flora of the gut is such an upcoming topic in healthcare that is showing to be connecting to so many other areas of health that are not limited to your stomach or intestines. This book was very knowledgeable and provided a ton of information and rationale for how to best protect and heal your gut from various incendiaries. I think so few research and authors spend time addressing women specific issues despite our unique hormonal concerns. Overall, a wonderful read for anyone interested in supporting their gut health.

"What Every Woman Needs to Know About Her Gut" is chocked full of very helpful information to address issues women face in regard to their gut health as well as things to know to prevent issues with your gut from happening. This will be a book I keep on hand for reference ongoing.
Thank you NetGalley and Sheldon Press for the opportunity to read and review this book.

I found this book to be very interesting g and helpful. I think anybody with gut issues should read this book as it will give them a lot of insight.

One look at the title and I was instantly interested. I guess that looking after oneself gains even more importance once you've reached your forties!

Even though the book is aimed at women who have been diagnosed or are looking to be diagnosed with specific digestive conditions, the information included is more widely useful. Plus, you can do what I did and skip the sections that are not relevant to you personally.

The way I see it, if you are a woman and you have a gut (!), then there are definitely parts of this book you'll find helpful and eye-opening.

Really enjoyed this, found it super helpful and have since made some changes.

Thank you NetGalley for my complimentary copy in return for my honest review.

this book was a great about how to control and deal with gut problems as a woman as well as digestive problems. There’s a lot of good information in this and I highly recommend everybody at least read this once.

Very informative and good read. I like that it acts more as a guide than a rule book, because every person has different problems and needs. I would really recommend it!

This book was great to see and I enjoyed residing it, its really important that this is talked about.

My one gripe was that the copy I had was hard to read due to editing however this didn't detract too much from the content and I think it would be better to be read not on a kindle.

Thank you for the arc.

Fascinating look into what women need to know about their gut. This book is very detailed and doesn't miss a single bullet point on how we can keep our guts healthy, and why it is even more impactful for women. I think there are very actionable steps one can take to ensure a healthy gut, and the author takes the time to explain everything and makes sure the reader knows that there isn't one magic pill a person can take to get healthy. This is a book I will keeping on hand for reference in the future.

Thanks to NetGalley and Sheldon Press for the eARC of this book.

I'm always interested in health and wellness. As a mom of ten children I want to be able to be healthy and active and participate in their lives. This book is perfectly suited for easy learning and application. Gut health is pivotal and this book addresses the issues that most women face and gives easy to follow solutions to the problems. New year - new resolutions - new health goals. Here we go

This is an excellent resource for anyone who with a physical or functional gut disorder. The authors discuss the many conditions that affect the gut, why they cause the symptoms that make us slaves to our gut and the treatment and lifestyle options. I love the “bullet point” style in various chapter that made it easier for me to grasp the subject matter. The Low-FODMAP eating plan is described well in this book and the book describes the three higher risk FODMAP elements in IBS, which makes the eating plan less restrictive.
I see myself referring to this book now and the as I manage life with a chronic functional digestive disorder. I think that tips will be helpful and I’m also more educated on tests and treatment options to discuss with my physician. #netgalley #WhatEveryWomanNeedsToKnowAboutHerGut

This is a very informative book for women who are struggling with digestive issues and for women who want to understand better the role of their gut on their health.

This was a great read! As a long time IBSD sufferer, a vast majority of the content resonated with me. Really well written with an easy flow.

You don’t read this unless you have a dodgy gut!
I found it really well-structured - first you learn about how your gut functions, then move on to what causes problems, then what you can do about it.
The authors use research to back up their recommendations and aren’t afraid to steer you away from shonky remedies or solutions.
I probably won’t use the diet but it seems pretty sensible (I was on the Fodmap diet for a while which is pretty restrictive).
I got lots of tips and advice though: I’m currently having a strong coffee - who knew that it could be such a big help with constipation ;)
Recommended: practical and evidence-based advice from trusted sources.

I feel like the American Education system failed me in many ways. One major one being, I don’t know a single thing about my body. That’s why I appreciate books like this that talk about things I should know, specifically in women's health. I found this book easy to follow a long and nicely organized. Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to review this book!

This one is very useful more if you're suffering from IBS this one will be super helpful really.

I did take a few pointers on how to get help with my condition very broadly, I suffer from a hiatal hernia so it does help to know how not to irritate the stomach or the bowels so everything can be a little smoother.

So I will advise it to understand better and know what to ask of your doctor when you have symptoms in your digestive system.

This book was incredibly informative on a topic I believe every woman deserves to know. Growing up, I didn't know the impact food had on my body. As a woman, this feels incredibly relevant to my wellbeing. This book broke down information, misinformation, and advice to help improve health.

Thank you to NetGalley and to the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
