 BRAIN, HEART, GUT HEALTH : 7 Easy Steps to Unlock the Vagus Nerve’s Inner Network to Boost Mood, Strengthen Immunity, and Optimize Mental, Emotional, and Digestive Well-being by Eden Thayer

This book starts out with a lot of introductory material about the vagus nerve and how it's connected to your brain, heart and you gut. There are some technical terms that I was unfamiliar with and they explain what they are in English.

Then chapters go into the 3 main topics of this book and also things like hormones, as in menopause that make things more difficult to work right as you age due to loss of estrogen. Like case studies from real humans. Love the section on nutrition and the lists of what foods to promote better health are included.  Journaling, yoga, meditation and so much more will also help.  Technology is discussed throughout as it can help you keep track of things for your journal.

There are lots of steps to follow to get back on track again. Meal plans are included at the end also shopping lists (vegan list also)  

References are included at the end of the book.
