Dark Matter
Autor James Kinrossen Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 iun 2024
From a world-leading microbiome scientist and surgeon with over two decades of experience comes Dark Matter - the definitive book on the science of the microbiome and how unlocking its potential can protect our health, our immunity and our planet.
Why are we living longer, but not happier?
The microbiome - our inner ecosystem of viruses, bacteria and other microbes - is critically important to our health and wellbeing. It is given to us by our mothers at birth, adapts with us as we age, influences our moods, determines how fast we run and even who we choose as a partner.
Yet it is only now, as we are beginning to discover the microbiome's enormous potential, that we are realising it is in grave danger, being irrevocably destroyed through the globalisation of our diets, the war on bugs and the industrialised world.
But we can look to reverse this damage. Drawing on cutting-edge research and years of clinical experience, Kinross shows how to unpack the microbiome's secrets, explaining that if we work with, not against, our microbes, we can live better, healthier lives.

Descriere
An urgent investigation into a brave new world in science - the microbiome - and how it could save our health.
The microbiome is the missing link in modern medicine - a vast genetic universe of bacteria, yeasts, viruses and parasites that live within us. Recent discoveries suggest that it influences every aspect of our health, even the way we think and feel.
In this mindblowing book, scientist and surgeon James Kinross explains how the organisms that live within us have helped us evolve, shaped our biology and defined the success of our species. But just as we have discovered this delicate and complex ecosystem within us, it is being irrevocably destroyed through the globalisation of our diets and lifestyles, and the destruction of our environment.
With dazzling science and fascinating stories that span from the dawn of humankind to the current race to develop personalised healthcare, this pioneering book explores a new frontier in the climate crisis - the crisis within our bodies - and will change the way you think about human health forever.
