Alzheimers, Dementia, Anxiety & Depression: Does It All Start In The Microbiome?
from Harmony With Food · host Meg Marie ORourke
We’re going to dig really deep today. We're going to be talking about biofilms. We're going to talk, continue the conversation from last week, when we talked about the fact that micronutrients can affect your health. We are also going to talk about the microbiome, the oral microbiome. and the gut microbiome and how research is showing we may be able to prevent dementia, Alzheimer’s, anxiety, and depression. We're going to talk a little bit more about the fact that many times you go to a therapist or a psychiatrist or your general practitioner and the first thing they do is put you on one of the medications for depression or anxiety that have a ton of side effects.
