Emeran Mayer

Combining cutting-edge neuroscience with the latest discoveries on the human microbiome, a practical guide in the tradition of Wheat Belly and Grain Brain that conclusively demonstrates the inextricable, biological link between mind and body. We have all experienced the connection between our mind and our gut—the decision we made because it “felt right”; the butterflies in our stomach before a big meeting; the anxious stomach rumbling when we’re stressed out. While the dialogue between the gut and the brain has been recognized by ancient healing traditions, including Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, Western medicine has failed to appreciate the complexity of how the brain, gut, and more recently, the microbiome—the microorganisms that live inside us—communicate with one another. In The Mind-Gut Connection, Dr. Emeran Mayer, executive director of the UCLA Center for Neurobiology of Stress, offers a revolutionary look at this developing science, teaching us how to harness the power of the mind-gut connection to take charge of our health. The Mind-Gut Connection shows how to keep the brain-gut communication clear and balanced to: • heal the gut by focusing on a plant-based diet • balance the microbiome by consuming fermented foods and probiotics, fasting, and cutting out sugar and processed foods • promote weight loss by detoxifying and creating healthy digestion and maximum nutrient absorption • boost immunity and prevent the onset of neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s • generate a happier mindset and reduce fatigue, moodiness, anxiety, and depression • prevent and heal GI disorders such as leaky gut syndrome, food sensitivities and allergies, and IBS, as well as digestive discomfort such as heartburn and bloating • and much more.

How the Hidden Conversation Within Our Bodies Impacts Our Mood, Our Choices, and Our Overall Health

The Mind-Gut Connection

From one of today's leading experts on the emerging science of the microbiome comes a ground-breaking book that offers, for the first time, evidence that the gut-microbiome plays a pivotal role in the health crises of the twenty-first century. In his acclaimed book, The Mind-Gut Connection, physician, UCLA professor, and researcher Dr. Emeran Mayer offered groundbreaking evidence of the critical role of the microbiome in neurological and cognitive health, proving once and for all the power and legitimacy of the "mind-body connection." Now, in The Gut-Disease Connection, Dr. Mayer will propose an even more radical paradigm shift: that the gut microbiome is at the center of virtually every disease that defines our 21st century public health crisis. Cutting-edge research continues to advance our understanding of the function and impact of the billions of organisms that live in the GI tract, and in Dr. Mayer's own research, he has amassed evidence that the "conversation" that takes place between these microbes and our various organs and bodily systems is critical to human health. When that conversation goes awry, we suffer, often becoming seriously ill. Combining clinical experience with up-to-the-minute science, The Gut-Disease Connection offers a comprehensive look at the link between alterations to the gut microbiome and the development chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, as well as susceptibility to infectious diseases like Covid-19. Dr. Mayer argues that it's essential we understand the profound and far-reaching effects of gut health and offers clear-cut strategies to reverse the steady upward rise of these illnesses, including a model for nutrition to support the microbiome. But time is running out: a plague of antimicrobial resistance is only a few decades away if we don't make critical changes to our food supply, including returning to sustainable practices that maintain the microbial diversity of the soil. To turn the tide of chronic and infectious disease tomorrow, we must shift the way we live today.

Understanding How Food Impacts Our Mind, Our Microbiome, and Our Immunity

The Mind-Gut-Immune Connection

The Gut-Immune Connection: How Understanding Why We're Sick Can Help Us Regain Our Health

Wenn sich Medizinstudentin und Bestsellerautorin Giulia Enders in Darm mit Charme auf einen Fachmann bezieht, dann ist es der renommierte Gastroenterologe Prof. Emeran Mayer. In diesem Buch verbindet der Experte für die Interaktion von Darm und Gehirn topaktuelle Erkenntnisse der Neurowissenschaft mit den neuesten Forschungsergebnissen zur menschlichen Darmflora. Er zeigt die untrennbare Verbindung zwischen unserem Verstand und Verdauungssystem auf und liefert viele praktische Informationen und Hilfestellungen. Verständlich und schlüssig erklärt er das komplexe Zusammenspiel von Gehirn und Darmflora – also den Mikroorganismen, die in unserem Verdauungstrakt leben – und bietet einen revolutionären und provokanten Blick auf dieses neue Forschungsfeld. Dieses Buch zeigt, wieso eine überwiegend pflanzliche Ernährung der Schlüssel zur Gesundheit ist, warum Stress und Angst zu Darmerkrankungen und kognitiven Störungen führen und wie man die Signale des eigenen Körpers richtig deutet.

Wie der Darm unsere Stimmung, unsere Entscheidungen und unser Wohlbefinden beeinflusst
