Fodmap Diet: The Beginner's Guide To Managing Digestive Disorders - Paperback

by Jane Ellenberger (Author)

Learn the Language of Your Gut, and Eliminate Digestive Issues with the Power of FODMAPs.

Digestive disorders are among the most common health issues in the world.

According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, an alarming 70 million Americans are among those affected by some form of digestive issue.

The causes for this demise of our collective gut health are diverse, but experts agree that the so-called Western diet holds a crucial role.

There's no denying it: our lifestyle and dieting choices are slowly killing us.

The relationship between food and gut health has long been established.

We are now aware that the microbiome, a small universe of microorganisms residing in our gut, has a huge impact on our overall health.

This small but powerful army of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites can be your best friend, or your worst enemy... depending on how you feed it.

When your microbiome receives food that alters its composition, it triggers the most dangerous response your body is capable of: the autoimmune response.

This event then further provokes various processes in your body that lead to developing digestive and autoimmune disorders.

This dangerous chain of events can be prevented, and the solution is simple: give your gut what it wants.

When you feed your microbiome with certain foods, such as those rich in fiber, you're keeping its precious balance in order.

This causes the microbiome to work for you, healing you from the inside, supporting your digestion and keeping the damaging health issues at bay.

The Fodmap diet is a program designed to do exactly that - provide your gut with beneficial food, while eliminating the ones that can disrupt the microbiome.

In Fodmap Diet, you will discover:

• The secrets and science of your digestive system, including a breakdown of its main parts and the functions they perform in your body
• A comprehensive guide through the vast universe of the microbiome: find out how to make your body a haven for these little helpers, so they can keep you healthy and thriving

However, that doesn't mean you have to suffer through boring dinners and repetitive breakfast choices.

The Fodmap journey can be exciting and delicious... if you know how to make it so.
