un immense intérêt tant au Canada qu'en Europe. Son blogue est rapidement inondé de témoignages et commentaires soulignant les bienfaits de la diète hypotoxique, pointant aussi les difficultés rencontrées. Infatigable chercheuse, Jacqueline Lagacé s'attelle aussitôt à la tâche, soucieuse d'apporter des réponses précises aux 1001 questions soulevées et de faire état des avancées de la recherche scientifique en ce domaine. L'ouvrage Une alimentation ciblée pour préserver ou retrouver la santé de l'intestin est le fruit de ce travail. L'auteure y vulgarise les connaissances scientifiques les plus récentes concernant les liens entre les aliments consommés et les maladies inflammatoires chroniques. Elle indique comment et pourquoi les choix alimentaires sont en très grande partie responsables de l'équilibre ou du déséquilibre fonctionnel de l'intestin et, conséquemment, de la santé globale. Elle explicite aussi l'impact de la diète hypotoxique sur les maladies chroniques. Enfin, elle apporte un éclairage précieux sur des sujets controversés, comme la prise de suppléments de calcium, de vitamine D, d'oméga 3, la fiabilité des tests de détection des intolérances alimentaires, etc. La réussite de la diète hypotoxique passe par une alimentation ciblée et cet ouvrage est l'outil indispensable pour y parvenir. 2016.Ultimate foods for ultimate health.. and don't forget the chocolate!: And Don't Forget The Chocolate!
