Tell me what you eat, and I'll tell you what bacteria you have

The nutritionist Blanca García-Orea reveals a revolutionary way to achieve emotional and physical well-being: taking care of the intestinal microbiota.

Many times we suffer from fatigue, bad mood, anxiety, stress and even digestive discomfort that we treat only with medication. Blanca García-Orea, one of the most influential nutritionists in our country, shares the keys to understanding how intestinal bacteria influence your thoughts, your behavior patterns and their role in diseases and quality of life.

The good news is that the intestinal microbiota is modifiable and, although we have always heard that we are born with certain genes that will mark our destiny, we now know that, even if your genetic code is unfavorable, if you do things well and follow good lifestyle habits (good diet, physical exercise, adequate rest, no alcohol or tobacco, etc.), you do not have to suffer certain diseases, even if you have a genetic predisposition to suffer from them.

In Tell me what you eat and I'll tell you what bacteria you have you will find guidelines to improve your intestinal microbiota in a short time and tips for reading food labels and knowing which ones to choose. You will also discover more than 50 simple and healthy recipes for breakfasts, snacks, lunches, dinners, desserts and breads, which will inspire you and help you to be the protagonist of your physical and mental health.

Now that we are beginning to understand the language our gut speaks, we just have to follow it.
