Description

For this week’s episode of the Clinician’s Corner, we’ve gone into the archives to pull out another clinical pearl from one of our favorite episodes - and today we discuss the gut-brain connection with Kiran Krishnan.

 

This interview first aired back in 2023, and the full interview can be viewed here.

 

Clinical pearls we extracted from the original interview:

    - The prevalence and and connection of key health issues with the gut (such as IBS, depression, and anxiety)

    - The psychology behind learning to live with chronic health issues

    - The science behind psychobiotics (specifically looking at Bifidobacterium longum 1714 - its anti-inflammatory properties and impact on mood & brain activity)

    - Practical takeaways for clinicians (such as how to use these psychobiotics to prevent leaky-gut, modulate stress, and reduce inflammation).
