Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Your microbiome, which is an overall term for the many trillions of microbes that live in and on you, is an integral part of you. It is not just a person, but a superorganism. It helps you digest your food, extract the nutrients you need to survive, and produce some of the vitamins your body depends upon. #2 The human microbiome consists of mostly beneficial bacteria, not harmful ones. The balance of your microbiome is extremely dynamic, and so is your health. As the balance and diversity of bacteria deteriorates, so does your health. #3 The modern lifestyle doesn’t make it easy for your gut microbiome. We’re constantly doing things that the bacteria don’t like, such as eating a diet full of ultraprocessed food, alcohol, and antibiotics. #4 When food reaches your small intestine, it’s a soup of partially digested food and any toxic substances you may have accidentally eaten. The lining of your small intestine forms an important barrier to keep these substances from sneaking into your bloodstream and triggering inflammation.

Combining the latest developments and research discoveries, board-certified gastroenterologist and medical host on CNN and Fox News, Dr. Roshini Raj shows the ways in which the microbiome impacts overall well-being, and helps readers reset their biological clocks by improving their gut health. With one in four Americans suffering from digestive health issues every day, gut health has become an increasingly important part of wellness. With the human body, so many issues can be improved upon, or cured, by balancing the microbiome. But the microbiome—a community of bacteria, viruses, and yeasts that dwell in the body—has long been something that the average person can find baffling—and maybe a little bit gross. By offering simple and straightforward answers to questions like what one should be eating, what probiotics are, which vitamins and medicines really work, Dr. Raj demystifies the gut. She uses the idea of a home renovation to show how different organs and parts of the body can be “renovated” in order to optimize the microbiome. After all, balancing one’s microbiome improves digestive health, brain function, emotional stability, the body’s response to inflammation, immunity, and lessens premature aging. Melding the latest developments and discoveries in microbiome research, along with Dr. Raj’s practical tips developed from her years of clinical experience, Gut Renovation shows readers how to turn back the biological clock and revamp the way they live forever.
