The Brain-Gut Connection: Anxiety & Stress Coming from Missing Gut Bacteria – Dr.Berg
You can improve your mood by cultivating more beneficial gut bacteria.
Timestamps:
0:00 Your gut bacteria can lower anxiety, stress, and worry
2:05 You lose your microflora mainly because of antibiotics
3:19 Here’s what you can do to improve your anxiety, stress, and worry
In this video, I’ll explain the tight connection between your gut bacteria and your mood, specifically anxiety, stress, and worry. But there’s also a connection with your cognitive functions including lack of focus or concentration. If you don’t have all the microflora — the friendly bacteria bifidobacterium and lactobacillus — in your gut, you could end up with problems with your brain chemistry.
What if there’s no obvious reason why you’re experiencing anxiety, stress, or worry? It may be a lack of friendly gut bacteria. They make proteins; specifically, neurotransmitters that travel through your nervous system.
One of these is GABA. If you lack it you could be depressed. There’s also serotonin, 90 per cent of which is made in your gut. Then you have something called the enteric nervous system. In seminars, I’ve discussed the fight or flight response which is part of the sympathetic nervous system, as well as the rest and digest response of the parasympathetic nervous system.
Well, there’s actually a third part of the autonomic nervous system — the enteric nervous system, which is the connection between the nerves in your gut and in your brain.
So how do you lose your good microflora? Mainly because of antibiotics, either one you take or ones found in the commercial meat products you consume. This is why I recommend organic meats only. Plus, they contain no insecticides or pesticides and aren’t GMO.
Artificial sweeteners also greatly affect your gut bacteria. Lastly, so too do GMO foods. We’re all affected by these . Glyphosate residues is harmful.
Here’s what you can do to improve your anxiety, stress, and worry:
Take a probiotic that includes bifidobacterium and lactobacillus
Take a prebiotic with the probiotic; sauerkraut, kimchi, or other fermented vegetables
Avoid the things I’ve mentioned that destroy your gut bacteria, but also laxatives and similar products
See how strong the connection is between your gut bacteria and mood?
