People often focus on exercise and diet for physical appearance and heart health, but research shows a strong connection between gut health, brain function, and movement. This topic is discussed in a recent episode of the Inspiring Wholeness podcast.
The podcast features Karen Corbin, Ph.D., associate investigator and registered dietitian at the AdventHealth Translational Research Institute, along with Kirk Erickson, Ph.D., director of translational neuroscience at the AdventHealth Research Institute. They examine how small lifestyle changes can have lasting effects on wellness and cognitive abilities.
Corbin and Erickson discuss how regular movement impacts brain health. The episode covers several topics, including one behavior that reduces dementia risk, misconceptions about gut health, the importance of the gut-brain relationship, four dietary tips for supporting the gut microbiome, and a simple activity to improve overall well-being.
