Description

It seems that working with the microbiome addresses deep patterns of behaviour and personality. We also understand that moods can be transient, we use the term ‘mood swing’ to emphasize the kinds of emotional state that change quickly and sometimes very dramatically from one state into another. We hear numbers thrown around about how often certain cells in the body regenerate – we understand that cells in the digestive system replace themselves relatively quickly especially in comparison with other organs. We are speaking about the microbiome as an organ, but it is an organ that can change dramatically with astonishing rapidity, just by eating different food. The microbiota can reorganize itself in minutes to deal with whatever food you are currently eating. Moods are often an immediate reflection therefore of how your microbiome is dealing with whatever you just consumed.
