Are We What We Eat? | with Esther Aarts
Why are candy bars so tempting? What makes the
microbes in our gut so important? And are we really what we eat?
The ninth episode of In A Nutshell is all about
the link between our brains and food choices. This week’s guest, Esther, will tell us how our brains, immune systems, and guts are connected.
Esther Aarts is a Principal Investigator at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour of the Food and Cognition group and a Professor of Nutritional Neuroscience. She examines how our brain impacts our eating behavior and how the food we consume impacts our brain and vividly explains her findings to her audience.
