Super Gut: Restoring Health Through the Microbiome
Restoring microbes lost by modern humans in their intestinal microbiomes is like ordering off a restaurant menu: you don't order every appetizer, main dish, or dessert--you choose the dishes you want. The same principle applies to rebuilding from a disastrous human microbiome: order up the microbes for the effects you desire: better mood, reduced anxiety, smoother skin with reduced wrinkles, deeper sleep, increased muscle mass and strength, reduced appetite, etc.

Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight
The bestselling author of the Wheat Belly books brings his next big, game changing idea—the human microbiome and the silent epidemic of SIBO—to the mainstream.
Wheat Belly was a breakthrough, informing readers that the wheat and grains we consume today are not the same wheat and grains of our ancestors and were making us overweight and sick. In Super Gut, Dr. Davis takes his research and findings a step further and shows that because of our highly processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are now missing so many of the good bacteria required to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over health, weight, mood, even behavior.
