Are you wasting your money using probiotics?
Is It the Gut-Brain or the Brain-Gut?
Recent research has shown that the nervous system, particularly the central nervous system (CNS), significantly impacts the intestines and the microbes in it.
So, if you have spent a bunch of money on probiotics, high-quality supplements, and even organic food but have noticed little to no benefit?
It may be time to look at your child's nervous system for the answer.
Scientific studies have unveiled that the nervous system is crucial in regulating various aspects of the intestinal tract. "The nervous system controls the secretion of intestinal peptides, gastric acid, and mucus, impacting digestion and nutrient absorption.
It also influences intestinal permeability and mucosal immunity, ultimately influencing intestinal microorganisms' habitat. This suggests that any disruptions in the nervous system regulation can potentially impact the delicate balance of the gut microbiota.
But have you ever had your child's nervous system checked?
How different is your child from even just a couple of months ago? This is a result of the constant change of the nervous system. Chiropractors are specifically trained to analyze your child's nervous system to ensure they can develop and function optimally.
Vertebral subluxations are slight misalignments or dysfunctions of the spinal vertebrae, which can pressure the nerves which control all bodily functions. These misalignments can affect the communication between the CNS and the gut, potentially leading to imbalances in the gut microbiota and related issues such as gastrointestinal disorders, food sensitivities, or compromised digestion.
You might be thinking, "But my child doesn't have any noticeable gut issues." However, not all nervous system dysfunctions manifest as immediate gut problems. In fact, research has shown that vertebral subluxations can exist for prolonged periods without producing overt symptoms. These silent subluxations can gradually disrupt the normal functioning of the nervous system, including its communication with the GI tract.
So, it becomes crucial to consider the underlying nervous system health of your child, even if their gut appears to be functioning fine. By checking their nervous system for vertebral subluxations, you can proactively identify and address any potential issues before they escalate. This proactive approach may prevent future gut-related problems and enhance your child's overall well-being and quality of life.
Investing in your child's nervous system health is investing in their future! Remember, the intricate connection between the gut and the brain is a two-way street. By taking care of their nervous system, you also care for their gut health.
