NWP Episode 278: Understanding the Gut Brain Axis
Did you know that…food is not always the cause of your GI symptoms? In fact, sometimes it has nothing to do with food and everything to do with your thoughts around the food. Today we are going to explore why this may be through a conversation on the gut brain axis.
I want to thank Marci Evans for her recent workshop that inspired this episode and is the reference for most of what I’ll share in this episode.
The brain is involved in so much aspects of your health. From how the digestive response is impacted by the gut brain axis, to how body image work is brain work, to even how the hypothalamus, the control center of your brain, is the reason your period can shut down if you are undereating and overexercising...it is TRULY fascinating to think about how our brain is involved in so much of what we think and feel and believe on a daily basis and how this may impact our health.
In this episode we dig in to the link of disordered eating and the digestive system and GI symptoms you may be experiencing through understanding the connection of your gut brain axis.
