Your brain actually listens

to your gut feeling

Ceylin Gün

The gut-brain axis is a bidirectional communication pathway

between the central nervous system and the enteric nervous system.

The central nervous system consists (CNS) of the brain and the

spinal cord. The enteric nervous system is the largest component of

the autonomic nervous system which controls bodily functions like

breathing, heartbeat, and digestive functions. The enteric nervous

system (ENS) is responsible for the digestive part of the autonomic

nervous system by governing the gastrointestinal tract. The

gastrointestinal tract is shown in the diagram:
