Ever get a “gut feeling” that turned out to be spot on? That’s not just intuition—it’s biology. In this week’s episode of Polished Beauty Podcast, we dive deep into the gut-brain connection, revealing how your digestive system is actually your second brain.
From the vagus nerve superhighway to the role of neurotransmitters like serotonin, we unpack how your microbiome influences everything from your mood and focus to your immune system and skin health.
You’ll learn:
- How gut bacteria shape mental clarity and emotional resilience
- Why stress wrecks your gut—and your glow
- Functional foods and supplements to boost brain power from the belly up
- The science behind probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics (yes, that’s a thing)
This is your blueprint for feeding both your brain and your beauty—from the inside out.
Tune in, take notes, and let your gut start working with you, not against you. Let's get polished!
