Do you have trouble sleeping because your thoughts spin? I created this cheat sheet to help you shut off your mind and turn on restorative sleep.
What do a fur trapper’s gunshot wound, Pavlov’s drooling dogs, and the vagus nerve have in common? They all tell the story of the gut-brain axis—a powerful connection between what happens in your belly and how you think, feel, eat, and sleep.
In this episode of Healthy Looks Great on You, Dr. Vickie takes you from 1800s medical oddities to modern lifestyle medicine insights. Learn how your gut influences mood, anxiety, cravings, and belly fat—and what you can do about it naturally.
✨ You’ll learn:
-
How your gut acts like a second brain
-
What the vagus nerve does (besides sounding fancy)
-
Why fiber, probiotics, and stress management are crucial for gut-brain health
