There's good reason to eat with your gut in mind. A healthy gut optimizes digestion, but that's not where it ends; it's vital to helping us absorb nutrients, and plays a role in supporting our immunity and emotional health. We went to the kitchen to develop a collection of easy, satisfying ways to get in the vibrant vegetables, hearty grains, and optimal fiber that support the gut in meals like Eggs with Sweet Potato and Swiss Chard Hash, Halibut Miso Dashi Soup, and Turkey Meatballs with Lemony Brown Rice and Sun-Dried Tomatoes.
These ATK recipes use only low-lactose dairy (but you can also make any recipe dairy-free) and can all be wheat-free (or even gluten-free): we focus on ancient grains in dishes like Quinoa Granola with Sesame Seeds and Curried Millet Pilaf, and offer gluten-free substitutions, if you need them, for good-for-you whole grains like barley, farro, and freekeh. In addition to 60 recipes that naturally fit low-FODMAP guidelines (the medically backed diet for common gut disorders like IBS), a grand majority of the remaining recipes provide customization instruction so you can adapt them to be low-FODMAP as well. That means every recipe has an answer to the way your gut tells you to eat. Whether you're trying to calm occasional gastrointestinal symptoms, are among the 1 in 5 Americans who suffer from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or simply seek to nourish yourself with whole foods, this book's for you.
