Who The Cookbook Is For

If you have been searching for simple, practical guidelines to prepare mouthwatering dishes that optimize the health of your gut and brain, the interconnected plates cookbook is just for you!

There has been a recent flood of dietary recommendations in the social media and of recipe books that all promote the Mediterranean diet concept.  Some of them are great with delicious recipes and beautiful food pictures.  But none of them are written by a scientist who has studied the brain, the gut and its microbiome for some 40 years, who has enjoyed traditional dishes on his many travels in Italy and who has partnered with a group of recipe creators from Italy, Spain and the US to transform the science of gut health into simple and mouthwatering culinary experiences.

In addition to the recipes, the book provides you with a historical basis of the origins of the Mediterranean diet and with many personal anecdotes told by the contributors to the individual dishes.

The book provides information about the key ingredients of this traditional dietary concept, and the main components that underlie its health benefits in healthy people. Should you suffer from any gut disorders that make you more sensitive to some of these components, you can easily modify the individual recipes  and individualize them for you.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE RECIPE BOOK

Learn from Dr. Emeran Mayer and his team of contributors, who has created this book based on his longstanding interest in studying brain gut microbiome interactions and who has been promoting a healthy, largely plant based diet as the single most important step you can take to optimize gut health, reduce systemic inflammation in the body and brain, and promote healthy longevity.

After completing Dr. Mayer’s book and having enjoyed the dishes made up of various combinations of health promoting ingredients, you will become your own expert in creating gut and brain healthy dishes from the key ingredients of the traditional Mediterranean diet, an art that has evolved around the Mediterranean over more than 2000 years.
