David Perlmutter, autor del bestseller Cerebro de pan, vuelve a la carga con un asombroso dato: la flora intestinal influye de manera directa en cada aspecto de nuestra salud vital, incluido el sistema nervioso.
Recientes hallazgos científicos han demostrado que las bacterias que se encuentran en el intestino interactúan de manera sorprendentemente activa con el cerebro, influyendo así en su funcionamiento. En este libro, el doctor Perlmutter nos explica cómo la salud de nuestra flora intestinal llega a determinar nuestro apetito, nuestro estado de ánimo e incluso el riesgo de padecer déficit de atención, alzheimer y esclerosis múltiple, entre otros padecimientos.
Ciertas decisiones aparentemente inofensivas, como tomar antibióticos, beber agua clorada, comer alimentos procesados e infestados de pesticidas o incluso un nacimiento por cesárea pueden causar cambios prolongados en nuestro microbioma y, por lo tanto, en la salud de nuestro cerebro. La buena noticia es que éste puede ser fácilmente rehabilitado y su condición óptima puede recuperarse a través de ciertos hábitos alimenticios que aprenderás en este libro, tan simples que no solamente te ayudarán a perder peso, sino a restaurar tu flora intestinal y a mejorar tu salud mental de por vida.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The bestselling author of Grain Brain uncovers the powerful role of gut bacteria in determining your brain's destiny.
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 is revealing that the health of your brain is, to an extraordinary degree, dictated by the state of your microbiome - the vast population of organisms that live in your body and outnumber your own cells ten to one. What's taking place in your intestines today is determining your risk for any number of brain-related conditions.
In Brain Maker, Dr. Perlmutter explains the potent interplay between intestinal microbes and the brain, describing 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, Brain Maker opens the door to unprecedented brain health potential.
