“The road to health is paved with good intestines!”

The Enteric System (ENS) is a collection of over 500 million neurones that are in every part of your gut.

The ENS has many neurotransmitters sending chemical signals from one part of the gut to another.

We simply could not survive without this amazing second brain of ours ( this doesn’t mean it has a conscience like the brain in our skull ! ).

How to help.

First off the one thing we all know we should cut back on is sugar, its tastes good but its toxic for our bodies. Keep the biscuit and cakes for a treat a couple of times a week, remember that there is hidden sugar in many foods, processed especially.

Eat natural yogurt, not low fat because that has more sugar in it. Greek yogurt is good, have it with berries for fiber.

Kefir milk has a high levels of all the good gut bacteria.
