There's a very robust connection between the chemistry of the brain and the chemistry of the gut and how your gut is turning what you eat into the chemicals and neurotransmitters that you need to be healthy, to sleep well, to not have anxiety.
Ever wondered how gut health ties into Parkinson's disease? In this episode of 'Pathways to Parkinson's Relief', Martha Carlin, CEO and Founder of The BioCollective, shares her journey alongside her husband John, who has been living with Parkinson's for 18 years. Martha dives into their personal quest for better quality of life and introduces the BiotiQuest Sugar Shift formula, a probiotic designed to support gut health.
She explains how the formula, made up of eight strains of probiotic bacteria, helps convert glucose and fructose into mannitol in the gut, potentially alleviating gastrointestinal symptoms like chronic constipation that many Parkinson's patients face. Martha also sheds light on emerging research in the Parkinson's microbiome and gut health, suggesting that constipation could be an early indicator of the disease.
She discusses the benefits of butyrate for gut health and offers practical tips for improving your gut health through diet and exercise. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the connection between gut health and Parkinson's and looking for ways to enhance their quality of life.
