Summary: The brain and gut are intricately connected through the gut-brain axis, involving both neural pathways and gut microbiomes, which influence brain functions such as cognition, memory, and motor control. While it was once thought that the brain controlled the gut, recent research shows that gut health also plays a crucial role in brain function and may impact neurodegenerative diseases like stroke, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's. Poor gut health is now linked to cognitive decline, prompting new treatment possibilities. Dr. Nandi's book, Heal Your Gut, Save Your Brain, explains this emerging science and offers a simple, holistic approach to improving gut health through nutrition, movement, purpose, spirituality, and community, aiming to prevent cognitive decline and support recovery from neurological disorders.
