Glorious Gut

Dr Roopa's Body Books: The Glorious Gut

'Read this book! Hotwired is a masterpiece of story-driven science that unpacks that health benefits of heat.' Dan Buettner, National Geographic Fellow, New York Times bestselling author and founder of the Blue Zones A radical exploration of how our bodies can harness heat for optimum health by #1 New York Times bestselling co-author of Outlive. In Hotwired, science editor Bill Gifford explores how heat can improve our performance and our health. Combining cutting-edge science, personal discovery and practical insights, Gifford reveals how humans evolved to excel in hot conditions - and how we've lost touch with this ancient advantage. He plunges into the steamy world of Finnish saunas, serves as a test subject in heat labs and tackles a 100-mile bike ride under the blazing Texas sun to show how exposing ourselves to discomfort can expand our physical and mental limits. He even explores how infrared sauna therapy and cold plunging could fight depression more effectively than medication. And he examines how, in cities around the globe, social saunas are reviving communal wellness. Whether you want to perform better, extend your lifespan or adapt to a warming planet, Gifford shows you the incredible benefits of reawakening your body's natural adaptability to heat and cold. Hotwired is a thrilling call to reimagine heat - not as a threat, but as a tool for strength, resilience and longevity.

How the Hidden Power of Heat Makes Us Stronger

Hotwired

The instant New York Times bestseller. For her entire adult life, Oprah Winfrey has struggled with her weight. She never thought in her lifetime, medicines would provide hope, health, and healing for people like her. But as her conversations with Dr. Ania Jastreboff from the Yale School of Medicine reveal, we've learned that having obesity is not a choice. It's not a question of willpower. Obesity is a disease. It's a question of biology, created by our bodies' need to survive and the environment we created and now live in. And it's treatable. The new medications can lower our body fat set point (our brain's 'Enough Point'), so that we lose weight without battling biology with willpower. Dr. Jastreboff describes strategies to optimise health and manage side effects all with the reassuring perspective of decades of experience treating patients with obesity and leading studies with these medications. Many of her patients say the 'food noise' that plagued them for years has evaporated. They describe a new freedom from intrusive, persistent and disruptive thoughts about food. With treatment they begin a journey of healing with self-compassion, devoid of the shame and blame they've endured from society for decades. Oprah says she's learned so much from Dr. Jastreboff about how, when it comes to weight, our bodies work with us - and also against us. How each of our struggles are different and each of our choices in living with obesity may also be different. Dr. Jastreboff's groundbreaking research offers a new way forward, not only for obesity treatment, but also for overall health, with significant implications for the prevention and reversal of hundreds of related diseases. As she demonstrates in this book, when science meets empathy, real healing becomes possible. Yes, there is a path to healing and leading the life you have always wanted, when your brain is reassured that you have 'enough.'

The Life-Changing Power of Microbes

Ferment

An inspirational and purpose-led memoir from Dr Alex George - providing readers with a window on to his experiences as well as his personal and professional insights on the notion of 'normality'. “The world can feel a hard place at times, who hasn't asked themselves 'Is it me?' How wonderfully reassuring to have Dr Alex ask those same questions with his trademark warmth and honesty. A must read for everyone trying their best at life.”&nbsp;DR JULIE SMITH “This is the story of all of the ways in which I didn't fit in and of all the things I would rather change about the world, than myself.” How many of us have at some time wondered 'Am I Normal?' And yet, our society is set up in such a way that there is very little room for difference or quirks or for us to question what normal really is. In this powerful, honest, and ultimately comforting book, mental fitness advocate and former A&amp;E doctor Dr Alex George explores what it means to be "normal" in a society that often fails to embrace any kind of straying from the accepted path laid out by the expectations of others. After years spent trying to fit the mold of what others expected of him, Alex's ADHD diagnosis became a turning point - not just in understanding himself, or helping him navigate the highs and lows he had experienced in childhood, whilst working in A&amp;E and after the devastating loss of his brother, but in challenging the systems and society that marginalize so many. This is a book that will give hope to anyone who has ever felt different and help you realize that your version of your normal is enough.

Am I Normal?

'Fascinating, a fantastic read... the whole book is a message of hope' Rangan Chatterjee 'Amazing... it makes you feel good today and will help you live longer tomorrow' Chris Evans A myth-busting guide to one of the key pillars of health and longevity - walking - by the renowned foot health experts Walking isn't just a leisurely activity or a form of personal transportation. Its far-reaching benefits - not just for physical health, but for mental clarity and emotional well-being, creativity and social connection - make it a vital component of human existence, one that is as essential as breathing and sleeping. In this book, world-renowned foot and gait specialist, Courtney Conley, and physiotherapist, Milica McDowell, transform our understanding of the importance of one of the simplest and most accessible forms of movement. Drawing on cutting-edge research, evolutionary biology and real-life stories from their practice, they show that walking is one of our most powerful and under-prescribed medicines: revealing why walking speed can predict overall health; how the risk of falls, which has a direct impact on longevity, can be measured by your foot health; and how even the shortest of walks can have profound healing effects. Filled with practical advice, from simple tips to help with lower back pain, to customizable programs to enhance mobility and fitness, this book is an essential guide to transforming your physical - and mental - health, from the ground up.

"A thrilling journey through health and disease - seen through the secret lives of our cells and organs." TIM SPECTOR The international bestselling author of Gut returns with a spellbinding voyage through the human body Sometimes we need to look inward to better understand life outside. Deep within us, forces are at work that protect, heal and keep us alive day after day - mostly without us even noticing. In Organ Speak, Giulia Enders guides us through our inner landscape, introducing us to the unseen heroes of our bodies. She shows how, for thousands of years, our organs have responded to challenges with astonishing intelligence - and that they have much to teach us: What, for example, can the immune system tell us about our need to feel safe? How does the process of wound-healing mirror emotional recovery? What do we truly need to thrive? With vivid stories and the latest science, this book not only opens our eyes to the wonders within but inspires us to approach our bodies with greater mindfulness and trust.

Organ Speak

'ENTHRALLING ... A PASSIONATE, WELL-ARGUED AND THOUGHT-PROVOKING READ' - The Times AN AMAZON BOOK OF THE YEAR For readers of Chris van Tulleken, Tim Spector and Ben Goldacre: An international bestseller which reveals how modern-day crises have been caused by the medical establishment, and what you really need to know about your health. Is HRT unsafe? Should you avoid giving peanut butter to small children? Blind Spots uncovers how inaccurate research drives medical myths which can spark public health crises. Doctors said for decades that opioids were not addictive, igniting the opioid crisis. They refused menopausal women hormone replacement therapy, causing unnecessary suffering. They demonised natural fat in foods, driving patients to eat processed carbohydrates as obesity soared. Modern medicine shines when it draws on good scientific studies. But when medicine is led by dogmatic groupthink, it's everyday people who fall victim. Blind Spots examines the latest research to reveal the truths essential to our health.

The Lies We’Re Fed About What We Eat and How to Break Free

Ultra-Processed Women

Our ancestors didn't just take the piss. They used it too.The human body leaks. It oozes. It sweats and spits. It bursts, it bleeds and it squirts. Over the history of humanity, our bodies have evolved into sophisticated vessels for survival, leaving a long trail of fluids in our wake.Whether we're coughing it up or swallowing it down, our bodily fluids are essential to our life and health. Yet, in the past couple of centuries, we have developed a difficult relationship with these fluids: today we find pus, poo and vomit unhygienic and even repellent. But this has not always been the case.In Blood, Sweat and Tears, Ruben Verwaal embarks on a deep dive into the story of our bodily fluids, the changing perceptions around them and the practical uses that have trickled down through the generations. Whether it's bile or breastmilk, semen or snot, Verwaal examines how each one of our bodily fluids is dripping with symbolism, mythology and its own rich cultural history.So the next time you have a runny nose, waxy ears, or sweat through your clothes, remember it wasn't always as gross as you think.
