And my research on the interplay between gut bacteria and digestion is that symbiotic gut bacteria break down the ingested foods into the components required for building brain and nerve tissue.  Quite fascinating!

We need to heal the gut...especially the maternal gut:





"There are studies showing that what we eat can alter the composition and products of the gut flora — in particular, that people with high-vegetable, fiber-based diets have a different composition of their microbiota, or gut environment, than people who eat the more typical Western diet that is high in fat and carbohydrates," Mayer said. "Now we know that this has an effect not only on the metabolism but also affects brain function."
