An overview on digestive health after a brain injury including the gut-brain connection and general tips for good digestive health. We also talk about pathways for seeking additional individualised support.
On the 9th of June, BIAT held an information and education session on the topic of digestive health after a brain injury.
In this session we introduced the topic of digestive health and changes that can occur to some people after a brain injury. We covered an overview of the brain and nervous system, and how our gut and brain are connected, continually communicating with each other. We finished the session off by exploring some general advice and tips for good digestive health as well as pathways for seeking additional individualised support for digestive health and managing symptoms.
