Did You Know!
You Have a “Second Brain” in Your Gut
Your digestive tract contains over 100 million nerve cells — more than your spinal cord.
This system is called the Enteric nervous system.
It can:
- Function independently of your brain
- Control digestion on its own
- Influence mood through the gut-brain axis
In fact, about 90% of serotonin (a key mood chemical) is produced in the gut — not the brain.
That “gut feeling” you get? It’s neurologically real.
