intestines

An entertaining and informative guidebook

About the strange world in which our intestines operate.

What is the secret to the success of this book, which sold millions of copies in less than a year?

The gut is as important as the brain or heart to our existence, but we know very little about it.

Anders humorously defends this often-neglected organ. After taking us on a tour of the digestive system, the author presents the results of the latest studies on the role of what she calls the "second brain" in our well-being. She invites us to change our eating habits and follow some practical rules to achieve healthy digestion.
