Details Condition: New Format: Paperback ISBN: 9780062075871 Publisher: HarperOne Age Range: Adult Overview Clean Gut is a functional medicine guide from New York Times bestselling author and cardiologist Dr. Alejandro Junger, creator of the widely followed Clean Program. Rather than chasing symptoms as they appear, Junger argues that many of today's most common health complaints trace back to an injured gut, and he sets out a practical, step-by-step programme readers can follow at home to repair digestion, reduce inflammation, and rebuild lasting resilience against chronic disease. About the Book Written in accessible, jargon-free language, Clean Gut brings together Dr. Junger's training in conventional internal medicine and cardiology with years spent studying integrative and eastern approaches to healing. The book explains, in plain terms, why the gut sits at the centre of digestion, immune function, hormone balance, mood, and sleep — and why an unhealthy gut environment can quietly drive fatigue, bloating, skin issues, joint pain, and even autoimmune flare-ups. From this foundation, Junger builds a structured plan: identifying and removing common gut irritants, supporting the microbiome, and reintroducing foods in a way designed to minimise further damage. The paperback edition includes food lists, meal-building guidance, and lifestyle recommendations covering sleep, stress, and movement, alongside case studies drawn from Junger's clinical practice that show how the protocol has worked for real patients. It's positioned as a natural follow-on to Junger's earlier bestseller Clean, going deeper into the gut-specific science behind the wider detox philosophy, while still standing alone as a complete programme for anyone wanting to address digestive health directly. The tone throughout is encouraging rather than clinical, aimed at readers who want credible, doctor-led guidance without being overwhelmed by medical terminology or an impractical regimen. Explains the gut's role in immunity, hormones, mood, and chronic disease in clear, non-technical language. Offers a structured detox and reset protocol to reduce gut irritants and support microbiome balance. Includes practical nutrition guidance, food lists, and meal-building tips. Covers complementary lifestyle factors such as sleep, stress management, and movement. Draws on real patient case studies to illustrate outcomes and encourage adherence.
