After many decades of physiological studies evaluating how the GI system works in health and disease, it is only in the last decade that food, fiber, diet, and the microbiome has found its proper scientific place. Using his extensive experience, Dr. Bulsiewicz has compiled this new knowledge into a clear and concise book so that readers having GI illness or who are in health can truly benefit.

We live in a country where most people eat twice the recommended daily allowance of protein and almost no one is eating the recommended fiber. Many think that because we do not absorb fiber it cannot be important. Dr. Bulsiewicz combines his firsthand knowledge with the available science to teach the reader the importance of eating varied forms of fiber to feed our varied forms of bacteria residing in our gut, and in turn improve and prevent both systemic diseases and gut pathology. And if you think your gut just cant tolerate fiber, do not fear. The good doctor has a whole chapter dedicated to helping you get over bloating and other symptoms commonly associated with high-fiber diets.

Garth Davis MD, author of Proteinaholic and bariatric surgeon & Medical Director of Weight Management, Mission Hospital, Asheville, North Carolina
