Our Gut and Brain are linked. The Gut-Brain connection is no joke. What we eat controls our emotions, how we feel and how we act.
Serotonin is regarded as the happy hormone. It is considered as the ‘mood stabiliser’. Approximately, 90% of Serotonin is stored in the Gut. Recent studies found that people suffering from depression often have low levels of Serotonin.
What we eat directly affects our Gut Health and as a result our Happiness.
