The Gut-Brain Connection—How Your Microbiome Impacts Cognitive Health
Recent research from Florida State University has uncovered a groundbreaking link between gut health and cognitive decline. As we age, or after antibiotic use, the diversity of gut bacteria often diminishes. This allows harmful bacteria, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, to thrive, potentially migrating to the brain and triggering inflammation. This phenomenon may accelerate memory loss and cognitive issues similar to those seen in aging brains.
