Is Your Gut Health Destroying Your Memory?
Groundbreaking research from Stanford Medicine reveals the gut-brain connection directly impacts memory function and cognitive performance. Your gut microbiome communicates with your brain through the gut-brain axis, affecting hippocampal health and memory formation. Studies show specific gut bacteria patterns predict memory decline 6-18 months before symptoms appear, while intestinal permeability ("leaky gut") allows inflammatory compounds to damage memory centers. Dr. Brain Good's 14-day gut-memory reset protocol targets these microbiome imbalances to restore cognitive function and prevent further memory decline.
