About this talk

Digest the latest research on the gut-brain axis — and discover how to holistically nourish your physical and mental health. By now you've probably heard that your gut is crucial to your health as a whole. But what does it actually do, and what does a healthy gut look like? Research is mounting that its role extends well beyond the digestive tract — impacting sleep, immunity, skin, hormones and mental health. Dr Emily Prpa digests the latest gut-microbiome science on your “second brain”, exploring the most recent discoveries while busting the myths behind fad diets that promise to miraculously boost gut health. In particular, we focus on the gut-brain axis: the two-way communication between gut and brain. With around 90% of your serotonin — the “happy hormone” — produced in the gut, we'll look at which foods help boost your mood, and how to cultivate a balanced, gut-friendly diet that nurtures both body and mind.
