Brain-intestinal connection

You may have heard about the connection between the brain and the body, but have you heard of the connection between the brain and the intestines?

I hope this article will give you some interesting information about this topic.

Brain-intestinal junctions are a scientific principle that serves as a link between neurology, a branch of medicine that studies neurological diseases, and a science of nutrition, the food that consumes our health.

I have a question to ask you. What does food mean to you? Do you think it is a fuel for energy? Is it a nutrient for maintaining a healthy body? Or can you consider food from the pleasure of food?

No matter what your answer is, the food you choose to ingest will affect your physical and mental health. You can even think of it as a message telling your body how to stay healthy.

Most people don't think that food is the source of disease... or, instead, it is the source of treatment.

For example, neuroscience tells us that cognitive problems may be related to poor diet.

Is the bowel really an important factor in mental health? Yes. The intestine has another name: "The second person's brain." Why do you think that science chooses to use this name as part of the digestive system?

The reasons are as follows: Ninety percent of serotonin and dopamine, a well-known brain neurotransmitter, is produced in the intestine rather than in the brain. Even more surprising is that 99% of human DNA [the carrier of genetic information] comes from bacteria in your intestines, and has nothing to do with your parents.

One of the functions of the vagus nerve is to extend from the brain and through several organs all the way to the intestines to control food digestion.

The intestine is where the inflammation begins in our body. Inflammation [https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/inflammation] is the cause of many diseases, including cognitive impairments [ie memory, learning, concentration, and the difficulty of making decisions]. Inflammation can also lead to heart disease and cancer.

We can say that whatever happens in the intestines will have a big impact on the brain. Food and food choices are critical to your overall health.

Science is positive: only choosing the right food can prevent 50% of Alzheimer's disease cases. Please consider this before buying food in the supermarket or ordering at the restaurant.

You have just learned some important reasons to treat your intuition more seriously.

If you've thought about a healthy life, learn more about your food intake, good/bad bacteria, pre- and pre-biological, and other information about your gut.

Are you really concerned about your food intake and brain connection? If not, do you think it is not the time?
