Brain Heist eBook

Description

According to Dr. John Dempster, our brain is intimately connected to other parts of our body. We are not an automobile. We do not just have separate parts that we focus on. We really want to make sure that we are connecting the person as a whole. Our central nervous system, so our brain, has a massive enervation, a massive nerve that goes straight to our gut. The more that we can support our gut health and our gut efficiency, and something called inflammation in our gut, the better we are going to be able to improve everything from Alzheimer’s to dementia to bipolar, schizophrenia, going down the list.

Other experts agree that the brain has a direct effect on the stomach and intestines. For example,” the very thought of eating can release the stomach’s juices before food gets there. This connection goes both ways. A troubled intestine can send signals to the brain, just as a troubled brain can send signals to the gut. Therefore, a person’s digestive distress can be the cause or the product of anxiety, stress, or depression. That is because the brain and the gastrointestinal (GI) system are intimately connected.
