As a result, many of us have lost control over our health, weight, mood, and even behavior.\nThe ancient bacteria that keep our digestion moving have been dying, replaced by harmful microbes that don’t keep us physically and mentally fit. With cutting-edge research, Dr. Davis connects the dots between gut health and modern ailments.
