The Gut Feeling is full of recipes that will calm your digestion, soothe your gut and delight your tastebuds.

A gut-friendly diet need not mean the elimination of favourite foods or hard-to-follow diets. Nutritionist, bestselling author and River Cottage teacher, Naomi Devlin, has distilled everything she knows about keeping your gut healthy into 100 everyday recipes.

First calm your gut. If your gut is sensitive, the first section is full of low FODMAP ingredients, seafood, broths and probiotics to soothe your digestion. Then nourish your gut with beneficial foods full of fibre, pre- and probiotics. And finally there are herbs, pickles and teas full of healing properties to stimulate and regulate digestion when you need a little extra help.

This book will take you back to local produce, good home cooking and a wonderfully diverse range of ingredients. Naomi will help you turn your gut into a hub of microbial diversity with lots of plant food, a wide range of meats and fats, plenty of raw cheese, slow-cooking, fermented foods and of course prebiotic and probiotic foods.

The Gut Feeling is full of delicious, healthy recipes and advice and will feed both your tastebuds and your microbes, leaving you content both inside and out.
