The secret to permanent weight loss revealed. The real reason diets fail has nothing to do with calories and everything to do with the balance of bacteria in your gut. A simple guide to show you how to finally achieve your ideal weight. The 100 trillion bacteria that live in your digestive tract--which make up 90 percent of the cells in your body--are the real reason you gain or lose weight. When those microbes are out of balance, chronic health conditions can occur, including irritable bowel syndrome, fatigue, and obesity. By balancing the good and bad bacteria, you can finally achieve your ideal weight--for good. In The Skinny Gut Diet, New York Times bestselling author, public television icon, certified nutritional consultant, and digestive health expert Brenda Watson offers an insightful perspective on the little-known connection between weight gain and an underlying imbalance of bacteria in the gut, or what she calls the "gut factor"--the overlooked root cause of weight gain. Drawing upon the latest scientific research, Brenda illuminates the inner workings of the digestive system and provides instructions for achieving a healthy bacterial ecosystem that spurs weight loss by enabling the body to absorb fewer calories from food, experience reduced cravings, and store less fat. The premise is simple: curtail sugar consumption (and its surprising sources) and eat more healthy fats, living foods, and protein to balance the gut bacteria. The result? A skinny gut. The Skinny Gut Diet centers around an easy-to-follow diet plan. A 14-day eating plan, dozens of delicious recipes and sage advice help you achieve--and maintain--digestive balance and sustained weight loss. With inspiring real-life stories of ten individuals who transformed their health on the Skinny Gut Diet, Brenda empowers you to become your own health advocate so that you can finally shed unwanted pounds and enjoy optimal health and vitality.

“Gut microbes help give a new twist to the phrase ‘You are what you eat.’ You are what your gut microbes do with what you eat.” (page 14)
Ms. Watson makes the claim that what is going on in your gut has a direct connection to what is going on with your weight. She does a very good job at backing it up, too. She includes plenty of arguments with references from reputable scientific studies.
She talks about almost every imaginable related topic such as, leaky gut, microbiome, candida, gluten, stress, antibiotics, inflammation, heavy metals, obesogens, detoxing and the gut-brain connection. She explains these and every thing else in easy to understand layman’s terms. No confusion here.
Interspersed throughout all the background information about the why behind the diet, are real life success stories, which makes this all the more credible.
When this author gets to the nitty gritty of what to do and eat for this diet she leaves nothing out. Included are food lists, meal plans, recipes, shopping lists, suggested suppliers and tips on eating out.
Some of the basic rules for this diet are:
Rule 1: Eat more fat (healthy fat) to reduce silent inflammation.
Rule 2: Eat living foods every day to balance your gut.
Rule 3: Eat protein at every meal and snack to eliminate cravings.
Just because you now have her basic rules doesn’t mean you will be successful in losing weight. There is an extremely large amount of information packed into this book and we all need the “why” for things or else we will forget and stop doing whatever the thing is. You really do need the whole book.
And considering all the health “sessions” and health “summits” that have been going on around the internet the last few months, this book contains a lot of that same information, perhaps not in as great a depth, but no topic in general seemed to be missing.
As a life long researcher of health topics and a weight loss coach I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to lose weight and keep it off.
