Nutrition Health & Wellness Cookbook Food Science Vegetarian Cooking Gut Health Vegan Cooking Special Diet
Leon Happy Guts: Recipes to Help You Live Better is the 2021 hardcover cookbook that turns the science of digestive wellness into 224 pages of crave-worthy dishes. Co-authors John Vincent (LEON co-founder) and food writer Rebecca Seal translate the latest gut-health research into practical meals that taste like comfort food, not compromise. From kimchi grilled-cheese to miso-butter mushrooms on sourdough, every recipe is tagged “vegan,” “vegetarian,” or “meat-friendly,” so households can mix and match without cooking separate dinners. A standout feature is the 4-week meal plan that builds diversity into breakfast, lunch, and dinner, ensuring you hit the 30-plants-a-week target that gut specialists now recommend for microbiome balance.
Buyers love the sturdy Octopus Publishing Group binding and the lay-flat 202 mm square format—heavy enough (838 g) to stay open when your hands are covered in tahini, yet compact enough for a crowded kitchen. The full-page photographs act like a visual shopping list: you can spot the exact shade of golden turmeric oats or the right texture for fermented tomato salsa, eliminating guesswork. Each recipe lists prep, cook, and fermentation times plus an “easy swaps” box, so gluten-free, dairy-free, or low-FODMAP eaters can adapt on the fly without sacrificing flavor.
This second-hand copy arrives clean and tight—no inscriptions, dog-ears, or former-library marks—making it an eco-smart gift or self-care upgrade. Light shelf scuffing on the jacket keeps the price friendly while the interior pages remain crisp, ready for sticky-note flags and week-night annotations. Whether you’re a busy young professional or a parent teaching teens to cook for long-term health, Leon Happy Guts delivers the kitchen confidence and scientific know-how to feed your microbiome—and your taste buds—beautifully.
