Darm mit Charme

Medicine Science

Published: 2014
Language: German

Unser Darm ist ein fabelhaftes Wesen voller Sensibilität, Verantwortung und Leistungsbereitschaft. Wenn man ihn gut behandelt, bedankt er sich dafür. Das tut jedem gut: Der Darm trainiert zwei Drittel unseres Immunsystems. Aus Brötchen oder Tofu-Wurst beschafft er unserem Körper die Energie zum Leben. Und er hat das größte Nervensystem nach dem Gehirn. Allergien, unser Gewicht und eben auch unsere Gefühlswelt sind eng mit unserm Bauch verknüpft. In diesem Buch erklärt die junge Wissenschaftlerin Giulia Enders, was die medizinische Forschung Neues bietet und wie wir mit diesem Wissen unseren Alltag besser machen können.
