Review Quotes

"'You are what you eat' is something we have all heard. But the more we learn about the connections between our diet and our health and more recently, between our gut and our brain, the more this adage is known to be true. In Heal Your Gut, Save Your Brain, Dr. Partha Nandi provides a deeply personal and highly engaging "how to" book on living healthfully and the rapidly evolving science of brain health. Dr. Nandi tackles the complexity of the intersection of our mind, spirit, and body with a formula and recipes that bring his expertly informed philosophy to your daily life and straight to your dining table. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in doing more than just learning about the biological gut-brain axis, but who wants to translate the science into meaningful change in their life and for their future." -David T. Rubin, M.D., Professor of Medicine, Chief, Section of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition at University of Chicago
