One of the great things about personal training is the diversity of topics you can cover in your reading. This week I have been working my way through a fabulous book on digestive health by Dr Gerard Mullin (The Inside Tract),  who is a world leading authority on GI function and health. I can highly recommend the book for all trainers who have realized the importance of health GI function for their clients health.

There is also a great series that I have been reading this year: The Weil Integrative Medical Library Series, edited by Dr Andrew Weil. Below are the texts I've read this year. This is a fantastic resource for trainers who are reading into the world of functional medicine.
