The Gut-Brain Paradox is the ninth book in Dr. Gundry's Paradox series.

Packed with actionable advice and science-backed nutrition, The Gut-Brain Paradox by Dr. Steven Gundry empowers readers to take control of their health by addressing the root cause of neurological and emotional imbalances. This book is a must-read for anyone looking to sharpen their mind, boost their mood, and protect their brain for years to come.

"If you've ever wondered why it's so hard to control your emotions, cravings, or the 'noise' in your head, don't look up for answers—look down," explains author Steven R. Gundry, MD. "All of this comes from your gut!"

Known for his trailblazing insights into gut health and longevity, Dr. Gundry now turns his expertise to the little-known connection between our gut and brain, unveiling how our microbiome holds the key to mental clarity, emotional well-being, and neurological health*.

"In my new book The Gut-Brain Paradox, I give you the tools to make your gut and microbiome work for you, not against you," explains Gundry. "I call it finding the inner 'piece'."

Steven R. Gundry—host of The Dr. Gundry Podcast, Gundry MD founder, and author of the Plant Paradox series, which has sold over 2.2 million copies—challenges conventional wisdom by demonstrating how the gut not only influences the brain but also drives our thoughts, behaviors, and mental health. Drawing on cutting-edge research and years of clinical experience, The Gut-Brain Paradox reveals how the standard American diet, overuse of antibiotics, and environmental toxins have disrupted the delicate balance of our microbiome, leading to inflammation, brain fog, mental health struggles, and even addiction*.

Praise for Dr. Gundry's books:

"When the microbiome is unhealthy, it can hijack the brain and lead to issues like brain fog, anxiety, and problems with focus and attention. The Gut-Brain Paradox demystifies how this happens and offers a blueprint to heal the gut, improve brain function, and enhance mental wellness."
— Daniel G. Amen, MD, author of Change Your Brain Every Day

"Dr. Steven Gundry has done it yet again—provided his expertise and insight to a crucial health issue, with a fascinating and eminently readable book. His advice should help us all to live healthier, happier, smarter, and longer."
—Dr. Dale Bredesen, author of the New York Times bestseller, Ageless Brain

"What Dr. Gundry shows us is not only that it's possible to thrive as we age but that the power to do it lies in our own hands (or, more accurately, in our guts)."
—Arianna Huffington, founder and CEO of Thrive

"Once in a generation a doctor comes along that completely changes the way we think about food and our health. Dr. Gundry is that physician. Following his advice, like I do personally, is life changing."
—Tony Robbins, author of the New York Times bestseller Life Force
