Gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, or “Dr. B” as he's better known, illuminates the studies on the microbiome and makes it abundantly clear that elimination diets (ie. Keto or Paleo) are in fact hazardous to our health. Though this book highlights one of the most important things ... fiber. Forget about the old-fashioned ideas of fiber that your mother is always telling you about, he's talking about cutting-edge science that is surprisingly exciting. Dr. B comes from a relatable place as a former junk-food junkie and knows the power of fiber to dramatically transform our health.

The history of Russia is complicated, but this satirical and “intentionally ahistorical” story of Catherine The Great and her rise to power makes it a little easier. The miniseries features Elle Fanning as Catherine and Nicolas Hoult as Peter, emperor of Russia in the 18th century. The show is worth a few laughs and will make most history buffs cringe. Which makes watching it a bit fun.
