THE IMMUNE MIND - MONTY LYMAN KARTONIERT (TB)

'Fascinating... A thoroughly thought-provoking read' Dame Sarah Gilbert  author of Vaxxers  
'Superbly written with excellent insights... One of the best non-fiction books I've read!' Dr
Rupy Aujla  author of The Doctor's Kitchen   You've heard that a healthy body means a healthy
mind - but why ? What exactly is going on in our immune system?  Delving into the discovery of
new anatomy in the brain  Dr Monty Lyman reveals the extraordinary implications for our
physical and mental health.  Could inflammation cause depression  and arthritis drugs cure it?
Can gut microbes shape your behaviour through the vagus nerve?  Can something as simple as
brushing your teeth properly reduce your risk of dementia?  Could childhood infections lie
behind neurological and psychiatric disorders such as tics and OCD?   Until a decade ago  we
misunderstood a fundamental aspect of human health. Although the brain and the body have always
been viewed as separate entities - treated in separate hospitals - science now shows that they
are intimately linked. Startlingly  we now know that our immune system is in constant
communication with our brain and can directly alter our mental health. This has opened up a new
frontier in medicine.  In The Immune Mind   Dr Monty Lyman explores the fascinating connection
between the mind  immune system and microbiome  offering practical advice on how to stay
healthy . A specialist in the cutting-edge field of immunopsychiatry  Lyman argues that we need
to change the way we treat disease and the way we see ourselves.  For the first time  we have a
new approach to medicine that treats the whole human being.
