The Gut Microbiome: Bench to Table
by Vivian C. H WuThe influence of the gut microbiome on human health and disease has been established in recent years through advances in high-throughput DNA sequencing. The Gut Microbiome: Bench to Table presents a scientific introduction to this topic, analyzes research on how the microbiome is affected by nutrients, and how dietary modifications can alter the microbiome. The Gut Microbiome: Bench to Table is divided into three sections. The first section details the current state of laboratory-scale analysis of gut microbiome samples and how we can identify the communities and their functional repertoire. Section II explains the next phase of translational research models such as preclinical, animal studies, proof of concept safety, and efficacy human trials. The third section demonstrates the effectiveness of therapeutic treatments in larger populations. It addresses how diet influences the gut microbiome and presents an array of approaches that have been reported, including a discussion of issues of the safety of probiotics and selected supplements and micronutrients. This book is essential for clinicians, dietitians and food and nutrition professionals who wish to have the most up-to-date knowledge on food sciences.
Gut Reaction: A day-by-day programme for choosing and combining foods for better health and easy weight loss (Positive Health Ser.)
by Gudrun Jonsson'On Gudrun's programme I ate more, weighed less and restored my mental clarity' Mary Killen Most doctors now accept that diet has a profound effect on our overall health and wellbeing. Gudrun Jonsson takes this one step further with her belief that the best diet in the world counts for nothing if you don't digest the food properly. Apparently thousands of us suffer from a range of ailments - from minor bloating after meals to chronic migraine and stress - because we have poor digestion. Using her training as a biopath she passes on her knowledge of the body and explains how to analyze our digestive systems and plan a regime that will improve the overall wellbeing of all of us.
Gut Reactions: A Perceptual Theory of Emotion (Philosophy of Mind)
by Jesse J. PrinzGut Reactions is an interdisciplinary defense of the claim that emotions are perceptions in a double sense. First of all, they are perceptions of changes in the body, but, through the body, they also allow us to literally perceive danger, loss, and other matters of concern. This proposal, which Prinz calls the embodied appraisal theory, reconciles the long standing debate between those who say emotions are cognitive and those who say they are noncognitive. The basic idea behind embodied appraisals is captured in the familiar notion of a "gut reaction," which has been overlooked by much emotion research. Prinz also addresses emotional valence, emotional consciousness, and the debate between evolutionary psychologists and social constructionists.
