Have you ever been told that your anxiety, depression, and brain fog are “just in your head”? Well, as it turns out, these conditions may actually begin in your gut.
There is a deep and consequential, yet all too often overlooked, connection between mental health and the health of the gut. Housing the enteric nervous system, the majority of the body’s immune cells, and the powerfully influential microbiome, it is difficult to overstate the effect this complex system has on the rest of the body, including the brain. With a barrier between self and other that is only one cell thick, what happens in the gut does not stay in the gut. When this barrier is compromised, principally through dysbiosis, improper diet and exposure to environmental toxins, the gut can quickly shift from being a source of nutrition to a being a source of toxicity, bearing consequences that can manifest as any number of physiological or psychological symptoms. In order to address the root cause of these myriad conditions, the health and integrity of the gut must be addressed and restored.
