DESCRIPTION

The book The Secret Life of Farts and Burps by Mariona Tolosa Sisteré is a fascinating presentation of what happens in our bodies when we digest food.

Why do people and animals fart? How is digestion organized and should you eat so as not to harm your body? These are some of the questions participants will discuss with gastroenterologist Alyona Rimskaya from docdeti clinic.

During the workshop, participants will model plates of balanced meals out of Plasticine, which will serve as a memo for the future.

The reading is organized in collaboration with docdeti, a chain of evidence-based medicine clinics for children.
