Leaky Brain

Your gut and brain are closely connected, and inflammation might harm both. A weakened blood-brain barrier (leaky brain) lets harmful substances into the brain, potentially leading to mental health issues like depression and neurodegenerative diseases. This is similar to leaky gut, where a loose intestinal lining allows toxins into the bloodstream.

Research shows that improving gut health—through probiotics, prebiotics, a healthy diet, and lifestyle changes—can strengthen the gut-brain connection and reduce inflammation. Addressing gut health could be a key step in improving mental health and preventing brain-related conditions.
