Here's some of my favourite books which focus on gut health. I recommend these as they will help you get a better understanding of certain health issues and improve not just digestive health but also your overall health and wellbeing.
Immunity : The Science of Staying Well
by Dr Jenna Macciochi
A must read to better understand our immune system which our digestive system is a huge part of.
The book explains in a clear, interesting and science backed way all about how our complex immune system works and how nutrition can support immunity. I was particularly interested in the chapter on stress and how it disrupts immunity. Stress is often an overlooked factor in our health, especially when we have digestive issues and this was an important reminder.

Mindful eating can be a game changer for our digestive wellbeing and this book provides a clear and informative guide about how to listen to our bodies and bring our full attention to eating. She outlines six simple guidelines for mindful eating which are easy to apply and will not only support our digestion process but can help restore a healthy relationship with food.
