16. The Gut-Brain Axis Explained

In today's episode, we learn the conditions we need to meet for our brain to undergo neuroplasticity in adulthood. We learn easy and neuroscience-proven skills that we can incorporate in our day to day to set ourselves up for success for learning and aging. neuroplasticity, learning, memory, neuroscience, aging, lifestyle

In this episode, Mahshad goes over the history and basics of neuroplasticity. We learn about the two different types of neuroplasticity and lay the foundation for future episodes on how to access neuroplasticity in adulthood.

In this episode of the What Science Says Podcast, we learn about how probiotics can help manage the symptoms of autism by helping manage gastrointestinal symptoms and potentially changing brain activity patterns.

In this episode, we are going to talk about the critical time periods that gut dysbiosis that increase the development of autism. We will end with 10 ways to take care gut microbiome of the child both in and out of the womb, to help reduce the risk of autism development.

Hello and welcome to this week’s episode of the What Science Says Podcast. In today’s episode, we talk about how gut dysbiosis can significantly increase the risk of autism, by impairing brain development in critical early years of life.

In today’s episode of What Science Says, we talk about the five ways that gut dysbiosis contributes to Alzheimer’s disease development and progression. We then go into 6 ways to enrich the gut microbiome using tools that are within our control.

In this episode, we go through all the ways that gut dysbiosis can cause depression. We also outline multiple lines of evidence that show that enriching the gut and maintaining a healthy gut can help alleviate symptoms of depression

In this episode of the "What Science Says" podcast, we set the groundwork for future episodes, but introducing the gut brain axis, and how the gut microbiota impact and interact with this axis.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we talk about how the brain changes in response to uncontrolled stress. The information from this podcast comes from a beautiful review published by Amy Arnsten in Nature Review Neuroscience n 2009, titled “Stress signalling pathways that impair prefrontal cortex structure and function”

In this episode, we explore how caffeine exerts powerful anti oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and therefore prevents Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease in both men and women
