Researchers discover crucial link between brain and gut stem cells

The insulin-like growth factor II gene plays a critical role in adult stem cell maintenance of both the intestine and the brain. Findings suggest IGF-2 is essential for multiple stem cell types, including those implicated in cognitive function and renewing the lining of the small intestine.

In the study, the researchers removed the gene from adult mice either rapidly over five days or more slowly over 15 days. In the intestine, the fast deletion of the gene led to a rapid loss of fast-cycling stem cells that replenish the gut lining, leading to dramatic weight loss and death within a week. A slower deletion of the gene allowed the mice to survive due to the recruitment of a second, and more inactive, population of gut stem cells, whose existence has been debated. Additionally, the study revealed that half of the stem cells in two regions of the brain that house neural stem cells were lost, causing deficits in learning and memory, increased anxiety and a loss of the sense of smell.

*******GLYPHOSATE******* By 2025, half the children born in the United States will be diagnosed with autism, says Dr. Stephanie Seneff, a senior research scientist at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. “Is there a toxic substance that is currently in our environment on the rise in step with increasing rates of autism that could explain this?” She asks in a 2013 presentation sponsored by Wellesley League of Women Voters. “The answer is yes, I’m quite sure that I’m right, and the answer is glyphosate.” -Dr Stephanie Seneff . . . https://www.medicaldaily.com/autism-rates-increase-2025-glyphosate-herbicide-may-be-responsible-future-half-316388 . . . . . . . #GLYPHOSATE #AUTISM #HEAVYMETALTOXICITY #ENVIRONMENT #ASD #SUPPORTASD #autismawarenessmonth #autismsupport #detox #toxicoverload #foodallergies #glutenintolerance #gutbrainaxis #gutbrainconnection #guthealth https://www.instagram.com/p/BwGVqTaH0bs/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=rck3qk7qf599

▶️ You Have 3 Brains! ▫️ Although the head, heart, and gut brains work together, they have obvious different physical functions and they also perform different mental and emotional roles. ▫️ The head brain analyzes information and applies logic. The heart-brain senses the world through emotion and feelings. ▫️ The gut brain is used for understanding our identity and who we are in the world. The gut-brain also helps us learn self-preservation by teaching us to follow our instinct – the “gut feeling” we all experience at times. ▫️ 💡 Did You Know: ▫️ Variations in the composition of the gut microbiota have been shown to impact health on many levels, not just in the gut but in the brain as well. ▫️ Probiotics have been shown to support individuals with mental health issues, as well as problems with bowel function. ▫️ The heart is a much more complex organ, both perception and cognition than was previously believed. ▫️ Scientists have discovered that the heart produces oxytocin, which is beneficial for many mental health conditions, reducing stress-induced cortisol levels, and weight loss. ▫️ Oxytocin has also been found in the intestinal tract, where it improves gut motility and decreases intestinal inflammation. ▫️ Credit: ➡ @dr.vegan ▫️ Follow ↙️ 👉 @sunriseorganix 👉 @@dr.vegan 👉 @wearesovegan 👉 @shelter_ugolyok 👉 @plantbasednews 👉 @vegainstrenght 👉 @animalsaustralia 👉 @MercyforAnimals 👉 @animalequality 👉 @plantsforfit ▫️ Documentaries ↙️ 🎬 Best Speech You Will Ever Hear by Gary Yourofsky 👉 bit.ly/gary400 🎬 James Aspey Speech 👉 bit.ly/speech0001 🎬 Dominion 👉 bit.ly/domin2018 🎬 Earthlings 👉 bit.ly/earthforall 🎬 What The Health 👉 bit.ly/wthfilm 🎬 COWSPIRACY: The Sustainability Secret 👉 bit.ly/cow0001 ▫️ Websites ↙️ 🕸 www.eatingveg.org 🕸 www.adaptt.org 🕸 www.plantbasednews.org 🕸 www.fastactionnetwork.com 🕸 www.carnism.org 🕸 www.vegankit.com 🕸 www.challenge22.com ▫️ Follow 👥, Like ♥️, Share 🔄 & Comment 📝 #bowelfunction #brainbox #brainhealth #capetownvegan #emotionalhealth #gut #gutbrainconnection #healthandfitness #healthinfo #mentalhealth #oxytocin #plantbased #plantbaseddiet #plantbasedgains #plantbasedwholefoods #superfoods #vegan # https://www.instagram.com/p/BuJfRLoglyQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1urzipid84heg

Gut-Brain Connection Explained

Most people think cravings, hunger, and digestion are completely separate from what's happening in the gut.

Researchers have discovered that's not the case.

Your digestive system and brain communicate continuously through what scientists call the gut-brain axis.

This communication network involves:

• The nervous system • Hormones • Immune signals • The gut microbiome

This helps explain why stress can affect digestion, why poor sleep can influence food choices, and why healthy eating habits often impact how we feel throughout the day.

While research continues to evolve, one thing remains consistent:

Small daily habits matter.

✓ Eat more fiber-rich foods ✓ Get quality sleep ✓ Manage stress ✓ Stay active ✓ Stay hydrated

Gut health isn't built through one perfect meal.

It's built through consistent habits over time.
