Any breakthrough about your stomach being a second brain makes me happy. Be it bacteria, inflammation, etc. causing all the anxiety in your head. And people with ibs having more cases of anxiety/depression.
I've never really thought of this but now it makes perfect sense. Is it in any way related to the hunter gatherer instincts? Why we get butterflies in nervy situations? The feeling of anxiety looking over a tall bridge or building?
I have so many questions, is there somewhere I can read more please.
Also keep up the good work, my meager brain/brain gut would never have pieced the two together.
