SUMMARY - The Gut: Our Second Brain By Cecile Denjean

Written by Shortcut Edition

Narrated by Digital Voice Mike G

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

By reading this summary, you will discover that your health depends mainly on your belly.

You will also discover :

• that scientists consider the belly as a second brain;
• that your belly has allowed your brain to develop;
• that your belly and your brain are connected and communicate constantly;
• that Chinese medicine explores this relationship to cure certain diseases;
• that the composition of your microbiota plays a vital role in your health;
• that your behavior is influenced by your microbiota.

Your belly is a concentrate of intelligence that is often underestimated. Indeed, your intestine contains 200 million neurons, that is to say approximately as much as in the cortex of a cat or a dog! These neurons help you to digest correctly: they are therefore essential to your survival. They are also in direct contact with your brain and influence, with the help of the bacteria in the intestine, your behaviour and your decisions. In other words, your belly is a primordial organ that sometimes directs your life without your knowledge. Are you ready to understand how it works?
