Gut - brain connection explained
Almost any brain injury results in compromising its hormonal activity. As the brain hormonally controls work of our kidneys - it is precisely setting pH of our bodies to be alkaline (healthy is when pH>7.3) - when this mechanism fails our bodies and intestines in particular become not alkaline enough or even acidic. In alkaline environment no fungal growth (fermentation) is possible and this is why young and healthy people have almost sterile intestines and almost odorless stool. When intestines become neutral or even acidic fermentation starts. This is why brain injuries made by v... more »
