Hi friend,
During the holidays, I know my gut gets a workout eating foods I don't usually eat. This also affects how I think and my mood!
The gut-brain axis is a bidirectional communication system between the gut and the brain, allowing them to constantly communicate with each other.
This means that the health of your gut can have a direct influence on your cognitive function and mental well-being.
Research has shown that a healthy gut contributes to better cognitive function, memory, and mood regulation. On the other hand, an unhealthy gut can lead to various cognitive issues such as…
Brain fog – The GI tract produces neurotransmitters that are linked to thoughts, mood, concentration and other cognitive abilities. If dysbiosis occurs, inflammatory reactions may occur, leading to a negative impact on both memory and learning.
Low energy and fatigue – An unhealthy gut can have a negative impact on your circadian rhythm which disrupts sleep and can leave you feeling tired throughout the day.
Anxiety and depression – It is believed that about half of the dopamine found in the body and the majority of serotonin are produced in the gut. If this system is compromised, these “happy hormones” will be affected, which can lead to poor mood or a depressed state. Furthermore, a leaky gut could cause these hormones to be lost or “leaked” rather than used properly.
So, how can you improve your gut health and support your cognitive health?
