Restrictive fad diets starve the gut of the critical fiber we need, weaken the microbes, and make our system vulnerable. Fiber-rich, real foods-- fruits, vegetables, whole grains, seeds, nuts, and legumes-- start working quickly and maintain your long-term health, promote weight loss, and allow you to thrive and feel great from the inside out. Bulsiewich explains the scientifically proven way to fuel our guts with dietary fiber from an abundant variety of colorful plants. -- adapted from jacket
