Recommend

I am very glad I got this book. I think it started a bit slow, and could have skipped the first 1.5 hours which is more about the authors personal story. But some might like the background stuff.
I am fairly self educated on healthy clean eating, and think what I heard here is solid and quality information. I think every-one, in the world, could benefit from the information provided and practicing the cleanse and re-balancing of the digestive system.
I googled the book and see he also has some You Tube videos, check them out first to see if you like his style. He also has a website selling a supplement program, but I was able to get enough info out of the book to design my own, since I dont live in North America I have to make due with what is available to me here.
All in all, a good book and worth a listen if you are looking to improve your health in a very real way.

Reader is difficult to understand

The reader was difficult to understand. Also, additional scientific background would have been helpful. For example, the author states that eating many different foods in one meal houses fermentation in the gut and then proceeds to advise on which food should be consumed together. Why do certain foods ferment? Why do they move through the gut more slowly?

Not as much factual information as I hoped for

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

This book is mostly comprised of stories about the authors friends and patients and how the "clean gut diet" changed their lives. I was hoping for more factual information. I did learn a few things but it wasn't exactly what I was expecting

Would you recommend Clean Gut to your friends? Why or why not?

If you are interested in trying the Clean Gut Diet; you do get the PDF file with this Audible book which includes the list of supplements, foods you can and cannot eat, recipes etc. I plan to try it out next month. I read Gut by Giulia Enders and preferred it. Gut is more matter-of-fact information rather than personal story telling without a lot of scientific explanation

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Yes

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No

Any additional comments?

If you plan to read Gut by Giulia Enders, this book might be helpful to read first

The hidden truth about gut health: probiotics

Gut health is the key to a good immunity and requires a healthy GI flora, hence the probiotics. Profound implications!

Good book to help introduce this topic to family

I've been looking for a book that I can recommend to family and friends so as to introduce them to my plight and hopefully tickle their interest. This book achieves this and will be buying copies for

Waste of time

It's a lot of the authors story . Very little knowledge shared which is a shame since the author sounds knowledgeable. It feels like one of those books that people create to promote their work and make the book because "they need a book " . You're better off reading the book the paleo code or something worth more substance

Fascinating book

This book was very interesting. He describes issues I have been having for years and explains in relatively simple terms what is likely causing it. I'm going to try the program and see if it helps.

I enjoyed listening to the narration.

Okay

I thought the book was OK. I don’t think the author went into enough depth regarding what we are expected to do and why. He didn’t even explain exactly what all the supplements are used for. At the end he becomes more of a psychologist talking about feelings and how to control our urges to eat the wrong foods.

Love this book - microbiome means everything!

I love this book and its message. So many people do not understand the importance of gut health and healing your gut in order to improve mood and heal yourself from diseases. I love how Junger lays everything out–starting with his own story–and gives a concrete plan. This also comes with a 88 page PDF of food lists and recipes.
