Because of our highly processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are now missing so many of the good bacteria that we require to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over our health, weight, mood, and even behavior. With cutting-edge research, Dr. Davis connects the dots between gut health and modern ailments such as SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), a silent and profound epidemic, which affects one out of three people and is responsible for an astounding range of human health conditions.

Story
In The Serendipity Mindset, Christian Busch explains that serendipity isn't about luck in the sense of simple randomness. It's about seeing links that others don't, combining these observations in unexpected and strategic ways, and learning how to detect the moments when apparently random or unconnected ideas merge to form new opportunities. Busch explores serendipity from a rational and scientific perspective and argues that there are identifiable approaches we can use to foster the conditions to let serendipity grow.

Joe De Sena has spent his life running toward challenge and discomfort. Why? Because how we react to challenging situations defines us and our families. The only tools we have as humans to survive the many peaks and valleys of a full life are preparedness, health, leadership, and most importantly, resilience. Why do so many parents struggle to finish things we start, delay gratification, and protect our health - and why do our kids continue to struggle in every facet of life? Because we haven’t showed them a path to resilience, and we haven’t fought for it ourselves.

Joe De Sena has spent his life running toward challenge and discomfort. Why? Because how we react to challenging situations defines us and our families. The only tools we have as humans to survive the many peaks and valleys of a full life are preparedness, health, leadership, and most importantly, resilience. Why do so many parents struggle to finish things we start, delay gratification, and protect our health - and why do our kids continue to struggle in every facet of life? Because we haven’t showed them a path to resilience, and we haven’t fought for it ourselves.

With cutting-edge research, Dr. Davis connects the dots between gut health and modern ailments such as SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), a silent and profound epidemic, which affects one out of three people and is responsible for an astounding range of human health conditions.

Aroo!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Depends. If they are a Spartan Racer I would, but for a coach potato I might recommend Joe's previous book Spartan Up! first.
What did you like best about this story?
Well I got my triple Trifecta this year and raced in 10 events. I am 9th in the 60-64 age group so lets just say I am into the whole zeitgeist of the Spartan approach. This book provides good insight into what it takes to adopt this lifestyle and its benefits. Anyone can run a Spartan Race and you owe it to yourself to at least try one and find out what you are made of.
Which scene was your favorite?
I enjoyed Joe's explanation of the Agoge and the history behind it. Never knew that and it made me want to read The Road to Sparta by Dean Karnaze
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I had heard the story of the disabled runner second hand. I particpated in an event with her in Penn. It was mind boggling to me to hear the story of what really happened to her. For this reason people should read this book, you will complain less about your own life.
Any additional comments?
American needs to get fit. Not just for the health benefits for our collective mental sanity.
