Gut-brain axis is not often at the forefront of people’s mind when talking about brain health. One of the most common denominators for brain health is inflammation, and unfortunately taking Fish oils just does not seem to be enough. This is why being aware of infections is imperative. Not only are we talking about dysbiosis and leaky gut, the new paradigm shows us how leaky gut leads to a leaky brain. There have been several studies done that directly link infections to certain diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Autism, ADHD etc. unfortunately, there is just not enough awareness of the impact an infection can have on your brain health.
The main topic will be explaining what the gut-brain axis is, and linking some common symptoms such as chronic fatigue and depression to the pathogenic cycle that is not being broken due to not addressing the gut.
