Brain expert Charlotte Labee teaches us about the magical connection between the brain and the gut. Have you ever had butterflies in
your stomach? Do you always need to go to the toilet when you are under a lot of stress? Does the thought of an unpleasant memory or
situation give you tummy ache? The gut is often called our second brain – and for good reason. When your gut is not healthy, you will also feel this in the rest of your body, both physically and mentally. In Restless Bowels, Brain Under Strain, Labee makes the biochemical processes that take place in our bodies understandable and accessible. Moreover, she shares fascinating insights that can help readers be healthy and feel happier.
With questions such as:
What bacteria are in our intestines and how do they affect us?
Which neurotransmitters are important and what role do they play?
What can we eat to feel energetic, happy and agile again?
