Josh Axe

This review has disappeared from Goodreads. I'll try to come back and do a new write-up later on.

Infuriating. In one paragraph, he'd reference real, established science and in the next paragraph he'd reference a bullshit sham of a study from a vanity journal. His advice is a mishmash of solid science and promising theories jammed together with hokum and woo. It's infuriating because, questionable legitimacy of different "gut types" aside, much of the actionable advice is sensible...so WHY push those other bullshit theories? They just throw every other claim into question too.

I am not sure of all of the facts on this one. It had some interesting information and I will investigate a little more.

Surprisingly original, with useful scientific references, and content I hadn't seen before about essential oils, medicinal mushrooms, the effect of common medications on various conditions, and much more. It concludes with five custom protocols for different gut types (candida, stressed, immune, gastric, toxic).
