The small intestine is a powerhouse of digestion and nutrient absorption—but when it malfunctions, the effects can be widespread and confusing. This accessible, doctor-written guide explores the full spectrum of small bowel conditions with clarity, compassion, and up-to-date medical knowledge.
From common issues like celiac disease, Crohn's, and lactose intolerance to rare disorders, malabsorption syndromes, infections, and small bowel cancers, this book covers it all. You'll also gain a deep understanding of the anatomy, hormones, nerve supply, and microbiome that make the small intestine function.
With easy-to-understand explanations, real-life examples, diagnostic tools, and practical advice on treatment, diet, and self-management, Understanding Small Intestine Disease empowers readers to take control of their gut health.
Whether you're a patient, caregiver, medical student, or simply curious about digestive health, this guide offers knowledge and reassurance in equal measure.
