Eat More, Live Well: Enjoy Your Favourite Food and Boost Your Gut Health with The Diversity Diet. The Sunday Times Bestseller

Firstly, this book is informative and has some lovely recipes. If you’re not vegan but looking to make some changes then it’s a great book. I’ve given it 1 star because for me, it’s useless.The problem: When a book is listed under ‘vegetarian and vegan recipe books’ the assumption is that there’s no meat in the recipes. Maybe that’s just me but I think it’s a simple conclusion to draw.There are meat, eggs, milk and other dairy ingredients listed in the recipes. The book should definitely not be tagged as vegan or vegetarian. Misleading and therefore no good to me.There are loads of other lovely vegan cookbooks available. Wish I’d bought something else!

After Dr Megan’s first book I had to get this and am SO glad I did. It only arrived this morning and I was able to make these healthy muffins with no sugar and snuck in vegetables. They are so good! My boyfriend devoured them. No fancy ingredients had everything in my cupboard.Also the gut-immune information is FASCINATING and there is plenty of simple tricks to boost it, along with the gut-hormone and gut-skin connection too. A must read if you ask me! Buying one for my sister.

Received my copy today and am already on Chapter 5. Dr Megan Rossi is an expert in her field and although the book is packed with information regarding gut health it’s not overpowering or difficult to understand the evidence based science behind it. I’ve been researching more about health & nutrition, especially areas regarding gut health and after following Dr Rossi on Instagram and listening to her on various podcasts I’m beginning to gain a good understanding on the basics of why we need to implement more plant-based foods to improve our gut health and all round well-being. This new book is packed with everything from how our Gut Microbes work, how it can enhance our immune system, to Weekly Food Plans and Tasty Recipes. A fantastic read and one I can highly recommend.

This is a great book. I’m very pleased I bought it. If you are totally new to gut health science, this is a very accessible way to get up to speed. If you’re not new to it, it’s a very accessible tool for applying the science in your daily life. Just under half the book is info, all of it very interesting, and the rest is recipes. The info section covers gut health, the importance of fibre and diversity, what the microbiota does for us in terms of physical and mental health, and lots of tips for plant-centred (not vegan) eating - including for those with sensitive guts.The recipes are inspiring but simple and not comprised of huge lists of ingredients. A number of them, like the stirfries and soup, work as blueprints for whatever you have in the fridge. I particularly like the sweet treats recipes, as I don’t tend to struggle to come up with nutritious veg-centred mains, but definitely struggle when it comes to making sure my kids have nutritious snacks that they will actually want to eat. The raspberry and white choc muffins and the cookie dough drops have each been a hit, and I’m looking forward to trying the prebiotic rocky road.

I love Dr Rossi and have her first book, this one is also really good. However, I know it sounds silly but I really wish it didn't have the word Diet in the titles as it always makes me think I'm on a diet regime and these books are supposed to be Anti Diet aren't they? So a bit put off by this book being touted as a diet.....
