Your brain doesn't think alone.

There is another brain hidden in your stomach, 500 million neurons, more than the entire spinal cord.

Dr. Michael Gershon of Columbia University called it "The Second Brain."

And it's talking to your brain right now. 🧠↔️🫁

News that will make you look at antidepressants differently:

Serotonin "happiness hormone" → 95% produced in the gut → not the brain

That means...Your mood depends more on your gut health than you think.

But how do bacteria in our stomachs send a "message" to the brain?

Through a nerve called the Vagus Nerve, it's like a "straight line" between the gut and the brain.

Prof John Cryan of University College Cork spent his entire life studying the subject and found that...

Good bacteria → good sign → good mood

And here's the most shocking story:

70-80% of your body's immunity is not in the blood, not in the bone marrow.

But in the gut, in a system called GALT.

It means → Poor intestines = Poor intestines. Good intestines = Good intestines.

Summary of what science tells us in 2024:

Gut = 2nd brain, gut = pleasure factory, gut = immune fortress

But most people take care of the brain in their head and forget to take care of the brain in their stomach.
