GUT-BRAIN CONNECTION


By Ruth Ferraz


In this article I am highlighting the topics Dr. Marc Grossman, a Holystic Optometrist  who I follow wrote in his blog. He developed in an article in  NaturalEyeCare.com the connection between the gut and brain, which should be totally connected with each other hemmisphere and with the eyes. I believe this article is very pertinent here because as I keep researching about eyes, brain and how to enhace skills, then it brings more insights to this subjects.  I fell myself healthier when my intestines are working good, I fell more the wellness of the health over all my body include the brain which coordinated all functions and cognitive skills like creativity, so important for everyone, not just artists.


 I have a routine that supports my gut health what is a way for my overall wellbeing. I enjoy to "eat clean", the most organic possoble, food with fibers, walking 30 minutes twice a week, coordenation exercises, I eat yogurt with probiotics, out side activities as much as I can, singing,  dancing, I painting, praying, etc.

Brain Aging, Microbiota and Health

The gut and brain are linked through an intricate communication network involving the vagus nerve, the enteric nervous system, immune signaling, and microbial activity. Beneficial gut bacteria help break down nutrients, support immune balance, and produce important neuroactive compounds such as serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, all of which influence brain health. When the microbiome becomes imbalanced, however, this communication system may be disrupted, potentially contributing to inflammation, blood-brain barrier dysfunction, and changes in memory and cognition. In this article, we look at recent research on brain aging, diet, and the microbiome, along with practical lifestyle considerations that may help support both gut and neurological health.


Gut-Brain Axis

This brain-gut connection is frequently examined in the context of gastrointestinal conditions, mental health concerns, and the broader effects of the microbiome on overall health.
