Did you know you have 2 brains? 🧠🧠 Well, not literally. Scientists often call the gastrointestinal tract your 2nd brain — because it’s in constant contact with the one in your skull! That’s why just thinking about food can lead your stomach to start secreting enzymes, or why giving a speech can lead to your feeling queasy. According to gut-brain neuroscientist — and TEDFellow — Diego Bohórquez, learning more about the way guts and brains communicate could someday lead to new treatments for disordered eating, PTSD, chronic stress and more. Visit the link in our bio to learn more about how your two brains talk to each other.
