The final Clever Guts pull out with the Daily Mail by Dr Michael Mosley, on Friday looks at how we make decisions about what to eat.
A radical thought here, quite significant! Who or indeed what makes the decisions of what to eat, do we make that decision consciously or is it a subconscious process? Or is it the millions of neurons in our gut? Is it the microbes in our gut?
Dr Mosley suggests the microbes have more control and influence over us than we ever thought.
Makes one think doesn’t it! (No pun intended here).
Scary to imagine that it may not be our choice – but our microbiome?
So if we have not so good microbes – does that predispose us to select foods that are in fact bad for our health? If we have good microbes then we crave foods that are healthy?
So the conclusion is that by feeding out gut, healthy gut-friendly foods, we are improving our health, our physical and mental well-being – reducing weight and benefiting in many ways.
Revolutionary – worth reading the book and grasping these concepts if it helps us avoid serious illness for as long as we can.
By the way the book is a fun read and really is full of great research and clear explanations. Dr Mosley has the gift of being an excellent communicator, he is inquisitive about our health and how to improve it… a great read!

Check out the book for the guidance through this process.

From Dr. Michael Mosley, author of the clever guts diet, due to be published tomorrow 18 May 2017.
In the article in today’s Daily Mail, Wednesday’s pull-out discusses preserved foods, such as Kefir milk, certain cheeses, yoghurt, sauerkraut and kimchis. These foods are natures probiotics for the human body.
These foods assist and aid our internal microbes, those that reside in the gut and the ones we wish to nuture, the good microbes, within our Microbiome.
Fermentation produces microbes that are beneficial for us, they are a diverse set and that helps us as well.
