Gut Health, Resilience, and What the Heck Is TMS Anyway?

The gut microbiome, that little ecosystems of bacteria and
microorganisms in your body, and your mental health are more
closely related than we may have thought. Dr. Aparna Church led a
study that points out the connection between a person’s stress
resilience and the composition of their gut microbiome. She joins
us and offers advice on how to eat best for your own stress
management. Then host John Moe thoroughly unpacks and demystified
TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) therapy. He explains what
it is, what the different types of it are, what actually happens
when you go, how it works on your brain, and what kind of results
to expect.
