Revealing Gut-Brain Connection: Two Naturopaths Dive Into Neurological Health

https://www.cura-medicine.com
Join us for an eye-opening conversation as two experienced naturopaths unpack the groundbreaking insights from the scientific review article "The Gut-Brain Axis in Neurological Diseases" by Pedro Melo Barbosa and Egberto Reis Barbosa, published by the Departamento de Neurologia at Universidade de São Paulo.
In this video, we dive deep into the fascinating world of the gut-brain connection and explore how it could hold the key to understanding and managing conditions like Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, autism spectrum disorders, and more.
What’s the gut-brain axis, and why does it matter?
We’ll break down the science in a way that’s easy to understand, highlighting how the trillions of microbes in your gut—your microbiota—communicate with your brain through nerves, hormones, and immune signals. From the role of diet (think Mediterranean vs. high-fat diets) to the impact of bacterial metabolites like short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), we’ll reveal how your gut health might influence everything from mood and memory to neurodegeneration and stroke recovery.
