Description
Debilitating brain disorders are on the rise—from children diagnosed with autism and ADHD to adults developing dementia at younger ages than ever before. But a medical revolution is underway that can solve this problem. Astonishing new research sheds light on the influence of the human microbiome in every aspect of health, including your nervous system.
In Brain Maker, Dr Perlmutter explains the connection between intestinal microbes and the brain, describing how the microbiome develops from birth and evolves based on the environment. He details 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 programme of six steps to improving gut ecology, Brain Maker opens the door to unprecedented brain health potential.

The author argues for a wheat-free approach to improve or reverse brain-related issues, combining scientific insights with practical guidance for better mental well-being. The book is regarded as a comprehensive guide to enhancing brain function, memory, and overall mood.
