Welcome to another enlightening episode of The Harley Street Doctor. Together with Founder and CEO of Harley Health Centre Alya Shakir, who is also a psychologist, we will explore the fascinating correlation between our gut and mental health in the wonderful world of psychobiology.
Be prepared for a deep dive into how the balanced biodiversity of our gut microbiota plays critical roles in determining not only our physical health, but also our mental well-being.
In this episode, we will uncover how the gut-brain axis acts as a two-way communication network that impacts various aspects of our health. Providing an in-depth understanding of how serotonin, the 'happy hormone', is produced within our gut, we address how the gut microbiota influences our emotional responses, cognitive functions, nutrient absorption and immune system functioning.
Join us to decode this intricate gut-brain connection and learn how to take proactive steps towards enhancing your mental through improved gut health.
