The Gut-Brain Connection and Health

We’ve all heard the phrase “gut feeling”, suggesting an intuitive understanding that there’s a connection between our guts and our brains. Modern science has for decades investigated this connection, and has demonstrated a far stronger link between our guts – and even our gut bacteria – and our brains than many people could have imagined. Join Dr. Eric Garza, a food systems instructor at the University of Vermont and local health and wellness enthusiast, for a talk that will explore the connection between our guts and brains and what foods we can eat to nourish that connection. This will be an interactive talk, so questions are encouraged.
