This comprehensive review synthesizes a decade of human and animal research to explain how the gut and brain communicate through hormonal, neural, immune, and microbial pathways. It highlights how disruptions in these pathways contribute to gastrointestinal,

Could our gut hold the key to human intelligence? New research shows gut microbes can shape brain development, boost energy and learning, and may influence conditions like ADHD, autism, and schizophre

A new study analyzed older adults who ate 60 grams of unsalted skin-roasted peanuts every day for 16 weeks. Scientists found that about two servings daily could increase verbal memory and blood flow to the brain.

A groundbreaking new study reveals that changes to the gut microbiome can change the way the brain works. Humans have the largest relative brain size of any primate, but little is known about how mammals with larger brains evolved to meet the intense energy demands required to support brain growth and maintenance.

Foods like extra-virgin olive oil, berries and eggs have nutrients to benefit brain health. More brain health-promoting habits include exercise, stress management and sleep.

A Cedars-Sinai study has identified a previously unknown role for astrocyte cells in how the brain responds to damage and disease. Cedars-Sinai researchers have identified a biological repair process that may eventually contribute to new treatments for spinal cord injuries,

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine, led by Bindu Paul, an associate professor of pharmacology, psychiatry and neuroscience at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, reported new evidence that a single brain enzyme may be central to memory.

A new method of reversing Alzheimer's shows promise in an animal study, as researchers at University Hospitals restore brain energy molecule NAD+.
