Full English available

Written by the scientist considered one of the top international experts in microbiota, this book outlines how avant-garde research on microbiota is revolutionizing the prevention and treatment of mood swings, eating disorders, degenerative illnesses, and neurological problems.

World-renowned scientist Maria Rescigno clearly explains how the gut-brain connection is regulated by microbiota. She guides readers through the latest discoveries and potential future advancements, teaching them to “modulate” microbiota using specific probiotics, postbiotics, bacterial metabolites, fermented foods, and microbiota transplants. This approach aims to safeguard and restore a healthy intestinal barrier, thereby preventing and treating disorders associated with its imbalances.
