That gut feeling

We have 10 times more bacteria than human cells in our body, so what’s inside your gut is pretty important! Often referred to as the second brain, your gut microbiome may influence brain chemistry and behaviours, including emotional behaviour, stress response, and pain perception. And, did you know that your gut bacteria is responsible for making 95% of the body’s serotonin? This hormone influences both mood and gastrointestinal activity – proving that your gut feeling just might be worth listening to.
