Scientists have discovered that the gut's microbiome may constitute a sixth sense, as bacteria in our gut can communicate with the brain via neural pathways, influencing appetite and potentially impacting conditions like obesity and psychiatric disorders.
Scientists at Duke University have discovered that the gut's microbiome may constitute a sixth sense, as bacteria in our gut communicate with the brain via neural pathways, influencing appetite and potentially impacting conditions like obesity and psychiatric disorders.
New research suggests the existence of a 'neurobiotic sense' where gut bacteria communicate directly with the brain via the vagus nerve, influencing appetite and mood, which could have implications for understanding and treating eating disorders and obesity.
