  • Unspecified gut trouble, or a diagnosis of IBS

What's inside

A reference manual, not another diet book

Gut Mastery is built on the Pareto principle: the 20% of gut science that produces 80% of the results. It is the shortcut through fifteen years of clinical practice, without having to do the reading yourself.

You get the working knowledge to identify and treat the most common gastrointestinal problems: antinutrients in everyday food, the intestinal microbiota and microbiome, leaky gut syndrome, how digestion actually works, what stress does to it, and how the gut drives both the brain and the skin.

Whatever your starting point, the protocols are specific enough to act on this week.

Gut Mastery in a nutshell

  • The knowledge and tools to identify and self-treat the most common gut-related problems
  • Ten detailed, science-backed protocols for self-healing specific gut issues
  • Fifteen years of clinical experience treating gut patients, compressed into one book
  • A reference manual for all things gut related
  • Written to be useful to healthcare professionals, coaches, and nutritionists too

Designed and illustrated throughout

26 images and graphic illustrations, laid out by Paula Karjalainen and Lotta Viitaniemi.

The author

Dr. Olli Sovijärvi, M.D.

I qualified as a medical doctor and spent years taking shifts at nearly 50 clinics and emergency rooms around Finland. Working those hours, my own gut was the first thing to give out, and putting it right became the question I could not put down. I studied Integral Theory at John F. Kennedy University in 2010 and 2011, then spent 2013 to 2018 in private practice specialising in nutrition and holistic health care. What I learned fixing my own digestion, and then my patients', is what this book is. I am the head author of the Biohacker's Handbook and a co-founder of HOLOLIFE Center, and today I write scientific content for preventive health care and run trainings on biohacking, performance optimisation, nutrition and intestinal balance.

  • Grounded in 388 scientific references

Frequently asked

Questions people ask before buying

I've read every gut book out there. How is this one different?

It isn't built around a diet. Gut Mastery works from the mechanisms (microbiota, digestion, permeability, stress) and then gives you a specific protocol for each specific problem, with 388 references behind them.

Will I get supplement recommendations and protocols?

Yes. If you're unsure how to apply them to your own situation, we'd still recommend working with an expert. Dr. Sovijärvi is one.

I'm vegan. Or carnivore. Is this still for me?

Yes. The book isn't tied to a diet or to a single protocol applied to everyone. It's about improving gut health with science-based, clinically tested methods, whatever you eat.

Was any of this written by AI?

No. Every book we publish is written by named human experts, this one by Dr. Sovijärvi, and every claim in it carries an academic reference, 388 of them here. What these books do is popularise scientific research: they make current findings usable without diluting them.

I'm healthy and take no medication. Would I get anything out of it?

Yes. The book is about bringing your gut microbiota into balance, and better digestion and nutrient absorption help whether or not something is currently wrong.
