The 2015 release ofʹa veritable publishing phenomenon, "Le charme discret de lʹintestin". The young German student Giuila Enders has made it possible to discover the incredible turning point science has made in recent years: the discovery of a second brain in our belly and the therapeutic potential of the microbiota - and the hundred trillion bacteria that inhabit it. This long gut, long taboo or neglected, is said to hold the keys to our physical and psychic fitness, and may even be in control of our behavior.
