The Mind-Gut Connection: How an Unhappy Gut Effects our Mood, Memory, and Immune System
Summary:

Scientists used to believe that all of our emotions originated in the brain. But new research shows they may actually come from the gut. Think about those terms: “Trusting your gut,”  or “Gut reaction.”  In addition, seventy percent of our immune system stems from the gut!

Dr. Vincent Pedre is back on the show today to talk about all things gut health: brain fog, leaky gut, the vagus nerve, thoughts on coffee, alcohol, wheat, and more.

Dr. Pedre is the Medical Director of Pedre Integrative Health and Founder of Dr. Pedre Wellness, Chief Medical Officer of United Naturals, and a Functional Medicine-Certified Practitioner in private practice in New York City since 2004. He is also certified in yoga and Medical Acupuncture.
