In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel discusses the important connection between the brain and gut, and how supporting this connection is key for children's health and wellbeing. He explains how the Vagus Nerve is the main pathway between the brain and gut, and a dysfunctional Vagus Nerve caused by a stressed nervous system can lead to many chronic health issues. Dr. Ebel emphasizes the need to focus on restoring nervous system function through a neurologically-focused chiropractor to truly help heal the gut and microbiome.Key Topics Covered:00:02 - Intro to brain-gut connection and making complex science simple and actionable00:06 - Most only learn about gut/microbiome from a nutritional perspective, but nervous system is key00:10 - Recap of how toxins damage the gut, but what if you've already fixed the diet?00:16 - Overview of role of microbiome and why it's been damaged recently00:22 - Nervous system dysregulation is root of inflammation, not just the gut00:27 - Nervous system controls gut function and microbiome, vagus nerve is conductor00:32 - Neurologically focused chiropractic adjusts vagus nerve most directly00:37 - Birth trauma and antibiotics damage vagus nerve and gut-brain connection00:43 - Finding subluxation patterns through scans to identify gut and immune issues00:58 - Traditional medicine is siloed, functional medicine works on systems, but chiropractic gets nervous system online01:06 - Examples of patients Francesca and Cole with anxiety, seizures improved through vagus nerve focus01:13 - Takeaway: if you've tried everything nutritionally, missing piece is nervous system chiropractic focusFollow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.
