Summary:
"The author of Grain Brain describes the potent interplay between intestinal microbes and the brain. How the microbiome develops from birth and evolves based on lifestyle choices, how it can become "sick," and how nurturing gut health through a few easy strategies can alter your brain's destiny for the better. With simple dietary recommendations and a highly practical program of six steps to improving gut ecology, this book opens the door to unprecedented brain health."-- From publisher.
