The Gut-Brain Connection

Your Gut & Brain Are Tightly Connected!

Gut-brain disorders happen when the communication between your gut and brain gets disrupted — and it can seriously affect your digestion causing symptoms of IBS or functional dyspepsia.

Here’s how it impacts your gut:
– Slowed or sped-up digestion (constipation or diarrhea)
– Increased sensitivity (pain and discomfort)
– More stress = more gut symptoms
– Gut bacteria changes
– Heightened food sensitivities & appetite changes

Assessing stress levels, behavioural patterns and mental health is always a priority when discussing digestive symptoms.
