We will explore the science of the gut-brain axis, understanding how your gut microbiome communicates with your brain through neural pathways like the vagus nerve, and how stress can disrupt this connection, leading to mental health challenges.We'll also delve into the emerging field of microbiome "prints"—distinct microbial patterns associated with various diseases such as anxiety, depression, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and neurodegenerative disorders. Learn how these microbial imbalances can affect your mental and physical health, and how personalized nutrition, targeted probiotics, and prebiotics can restore balance.This course will equip you with the latest research on how your microbiome influences mental wellness, along with actionable lifestyle changes to boost gut health, improve mood, and increase resilience.
