The gut-brain axis

The gut and brain communicate bidirectionally through the nervous system, hormones, and immune signaling, making digestive health inseparable from mood, attention, and resilience. Chronic stress degrades this communication and gut barrier function; conversely, practices that calm the nervous system improve both mental clarity and digestion.
