I believe that a healthy microbiome in the gut contributes to wellness in all areas especially mental wellness. There is definitely a link between seratonin and gut health. I suffered horribly from depression, anxiety, and an eating disorder. My colo-rectal surgeon felt that the issues with my gut contributed to my mental illness and not the other way around. Now that my colon is gone my mental health is 95% well.

I 100% agree! What eating disorder do you have if you do not mind me asking???
