Calm your mind with food : a revolutionary guide to controlling your anxiety / Uma Naidoo.
"Researchers and the public have historically believed the gut, brain, and immune system to be separate, distinct entities. However, recent research indicates these three major systems are surprisingly connected. Few people realize that we have an immune system in our gut -- and it greatly affects our mental health and, specifically, our tendency towards anxiety. This revelation is transforming the way we think about food, anxiety, and mental health"-- Provided by publisher.
