Gut - Brain Connection
DID YOU KNOW
That there is a “second brain” in our gut that has up to 600 million neurons inside and can act independently from our central nervous system?
That the human body consists of 100 trillion microbiota which primarily live in our gut and are a key determinant of our health and overall well-being?
That diet is the single most critical factor that can influence the composition of our gut microbiota and in turn influence our brain and emotions?
The gut-brain axis represents a bi-directional communication network between the GI tract and the brain. It plays an important role in the maintenance of homeostasis of the host.
